It really bugs me....Do I just have to learn to live with it?

I just got my two Rolexes serviced about a month or so ago at the Fifth Avenue Rolex store in NYC.
I have a YG President, fluted bezel, stick dial which had lost the lume and the face was a bit discolored. Nothing wrong with the watch, just patina but they replaced the parts and fix to the tune of $1875.

The problem is the second watch. WG President, diamond dial, diamond bezel which had stopped advancing after keeping time beautifully for years. This was why I went in for servicing and figured I'd just do both.

Anyway, let me get to the point, the diamond bezel had two slight dings in almost the same spot (probably from banging my hand against something) and after servicing the dings were still there. Untouched. I guess that wasn't something they repair under servicing although for $1800 (both watches were close to $4k Total) I'd think they would send the watch back looking brand new.

Funny, but the dings never bothered me so much until after servicing. The dings just jumped out at me because the dings were at the 3 o'clock mark when they replaced it after servicing. I had them turn the bezel to put it back at 12 o'clock and that made it look less glaring but it still gnaws at me!
What's up with that? They cleaned and replaced parts on both and both look pretty good but for the ding. Optically it almost looks like the bezel is no longer perfectly circular and I notice the ding even if no one else does?

Anything at all that I can do about this? Do I just have to learn to live with it?
