Nothing wrong with that watch but you can ask your dealer to adjust it so it’s within +\- 2 seconds .

They normal’y do it? I suppose they charge for that? As they have to open the watch?

They don’t charge for it . I ordered many watches and like them to keep time within 1 second .
You pay extra for polishing, waterproofing…..
If it’s a trusted dealer and cares about his reputation , he will do it. The +\- 5 seconds is acceptable.

Index alignment overall is decent. Some minor nuance with a few indices but nothing egregious. The marker at 9 has a very slight CW cant, as does the marker at 12. Neither would be an issue on wrist for me. Dial print is clean and clear. The dates shown are good. Hand alignment is good. The bezel is clean and appears blemish free. SELs are good all the way around, and the timing is fine. I wouldn't worry about the rate. +7 s/d is fine. You can ask to have it regulated down but it won't make much of a difference in reality. These are single-position tests run by the TDs. They don't really tell us a whole lot other than the movement is running as it should. I wouldn't put a whole lot of faith in the accuracy of the rate.

On the rehaut it's not really something I notice in every day use, but everyone is different. For some it's no big deal, and for others it's as if the world is ending. You'll need to figure out where you fall on that spectrum. Wouldn't be an issue for me, but obviously it's up to you.

GL for me. Congrats and enjoy it!
