newbie - question about alignment of bezel marking

Hi,
A question for all you SMP experts out there. I just noticed that the bezel markings on my new SMP 300 do not line up 'perfectly' with the dial. If I have the triangle on the bezel positioned at the top. The 3:00 tick mark on the bezel appears very, very, slightly lower (like half the width of the mark lower) than the 9:00 tick mark on the opposite side. Practically un-noticeable, except to me. If I move the bezel one click, then the 3:00 tick mark is a tiny amount higher than the 9:00 tick mark on the other side. So it seems my bezel is about 1/3 -1/2 click off 'perfect' alignment. The jeweler I bought it from said this is to be expected. What should I expect as far as acceptable alignment? Am I worrying over a trivial detail?

thanks in advance for your replies!
