I had to take a second look at it. For some reason the min. hand looked like the hour hand and the hr. hand like a short min. hand.

It's probably worth pointing out that it's an annual calendar, which means it automatically adjusts for the different lengths of months, except for February.

Just wanted to say thanks for posting your photo and info on this issue. I put the same watch in my cart at least 5 times but didn’t pull the trigger, hoping you’d report on yours. Wish you luck with the resolution - it looks great!
NAD. You're welcome. Here are the pictures in chrono mode of the first 4 mins. You can see the slight misalignment.
1min.jpg2min.jpg3min.jpg4min.jpg

I ran it for about 25mins and it was dead center at 25mins while missing a little on every other marker till it. So I've decided to return and ask for a refund. Just received the RMA number so will be returning the watch back to Gemnation in a day or two. Hope that goes smoothly.
Hand alignment is something once seen can't be unseen and annoys me. I sent a Fortis back with 3 minute deviation once. I'm not sure of the standard for sub dials (probably dead on in regards to chrono) but for hour and minute hands the actual standard is at every hour the hour hand should be perfectly aligned with the hour marker and the minute hand not deviate more than 30 seconds (3 angular degrees) to be considered acceptable. More than 1 minute or 6 angular degrees is poor workmanship. Can be dial issues too where the markers are off.
NAD
Gemnation's reply on my request for an exchange as follows.
"Hi
Send it back to us, When we will get it we will check on a replacement if it is better and if yes we will ship to and if we don't anymore or it is all like this or similar we will fully refund you"

Watch has been posted back. Let's see what's next.

Looks like that's roughly what they are selling for on other sites. Creation had it for $210 but it's sold out.
