The photo itself isn’t quite straight on, so it might not be as bad as it looks.
If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying 'End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH', the paint wouldn't even have time to dry.

The Twilight MM200 I recently got from an AD had literally the worst bezel alignment I have ever seen (no pic, sorry). Duarte took care of that...but then the watch completely died a day after the new owner took possession. So now I have it back and it will be off to Seiko USA. Come on, Seiko...

I still love Seiko but I really haven’t bought any divers in a while. I can’t say I attribute this to Seiko, but buying Seikos without ratcheting bezels has done away with this problem for me.
