Looks like we'll have to send them back.

Perhaps Rolex should get rid of the crown emblem then everyone's would line up somewhere but then many would have nothing to post about.

Bezels I was 'anal' about, but crowns? Don't care a bit.

Fallranger · 23 April 2019, 10:19 PM

Nope. Not even close on mine.

Money back Lee

Mine weren't so i just superglued them into the correct position.

H-Watches · 23 April 2019, 11:14 PM

Mine oddly is because none of my other are. But this new OP39 was right site up I was shocked.

I’m about 0 for 10. My 5513 was closest of all.

Only my 2007 model Sub is perfectly upright. My other models aren’t. Which funnily has always bothered me

Interesting!

That’s the way I think of it too!

I’m almost sure that if we were to zoom in microscopically, the number of perfectly aligned frowns would be almost zero

ricardo-sf · 24 April 2019, 01:51 AM

mine is always aligned -

just screw it in,, then dial it back until its aligned..

its not that hard folks.

Only one is and it was pure luck.

Likestheshiny · 24 April 2019, 03:11 AM

My BLNR did for about a year, until the gasket compressed. At this point it's about a quarter-circle past that for the same level of tightness.

Which, presumably, is part of the reason that it's harder to make it always line up than people seem to assume.

I like it if the Crown is perfectly vertical, but know it is very rare. My hulk is *almost* there, pointing to about 12:30 (about fifteen degrees beyond vertical). I purchased a SD43 from my AD that, through pure luck, was perfect. None of the others have been even close.

This. None of mine have, and if they did or don't, I could care less.

And for the few of you that do have them line up, I bet after the next service it wont stay that way. (SD excluded, of course).

Dennisoul · 24 April 2019, 05:54 PM

None of my 4 are....my wife’s 26mm Datejust is perfectly centred

None of the thirty or so I’ve had, including the Sky-Dweller that arrived this week. (The crown points perfectly 90 degrees clockwise.)
