In any event I would need to see the full picture before offering an opinion.

Is it genuine?
It's not my watch, no. But it is for sale from a very reputable grey dealer here in the UK. I took a screenshot from Chrono24.

I know I'm OCD particular, when it comes to stuff like this The purpose of the thread was to see what other people's views are.

It's very clear that the majority aren't bothered in the slightest. Fine!

Some others are bothered by it. Also, fine!

My 2p worth is that this isn't acceptable by Rolex's high standards. In my opinion it's like seeing a luxury vehicle with a wonky license plate, but this is my opinion only.

I can be viewed as it’s fine or not fine. The assumption is that it hasn’t been mucked with by an authorized party. This misalignment can be proof that it has been opened.

Rolex Crown Alignment

It’s just the dial. There’s some play in it before they tighten it all down. Easily fixed and not uncommon.

Yes. But I think the point is for what we pay for these watches the QC should be a little better at the factory. Like someone should at least go over it with a loupe, check for dial alignment, dust inside and so on. One would hope at least.
