Guys, remember, a work on this misalignment would not mean to align a single digit, they would have to make a new print tampon of the date ring.....

This is a date ring from a watch with a calendar. The numbers are from 1 to 31. There are 31 teeth in the middle of the date ring. These teeth are indexed by a date jumper spring which indexes between the teeth. The date ring is advanced one tooth every 24-hours, a new date shows in the window on the dial. There is a 1 in 31 chance that a numeral may not be absolutely in the centre of the window. I’d go a step further. I’ll bet HALF the numbers won’t be perfectly centred in the window.
On the topic of pedantry, what I really dislike about this date ring is the serif "1" characters in "1" and "11" and nowhere else.
