I recently purchased my first Rolex after longing for one for years. A Datejust, jubilee bracelet with white face and gold roman numerals, new in the box with the card and papers. While in a jewelry store I saw the same watch. The "swiss made" words were not in the exact location as on my watch. Only off by a small amount, but for sure not in the same location. Should I be concerned? Am I being paranoid?

Thanks for your feedback,

Bill

First Congrats

Second post a pic!

Third, how could you tell the printing was off by just a bit? What is a bit? If it's sooo little, it wouldn't matter. More curious about how you noticed.

Post up a couple pics of the dial Bill, there are numerous printing/font variations on Rolex dials within models. You say it was purchased nib, was this from a Rolex dealer? if yes you have nothing to worry about. Welcome to TRF.
