 the crystal looks like it sits a bit higher..but could be the angle...the left lug looks a little cleaned up..but again could be the lighting....the bracelet looks to fit close to the case...Im guessing a new set of spring bars to hold that bracelet a bit more snug and higher? maybe a quick polish? Im stumped.

All very close Justin but not quite right
 The actually opened up the end-links so that the top of the end links looks more aligned with the top of the lugs. If you look in the first photo you can see the writing between the lugs just poking up above the end-link, well they fixed that so you can no longer see the writing anymore.

I guess your beater on that fabric will pass . Aussie $ is good now to buy, but not so good to sell  You gotta take advantage when you can.

Is it my eyes or is the brushed finish a bit rougher? Now, about that bezel at '4'? I also see that your avatars are losing the plot AGAIN.
