·You think you can use the hands to determine if the dial is aligned?
The dial is rotated with respect to what? The bezel?
I think you don't understand how watches are constructed.
All of these things will always be slightly misaligned, unless they are perfectly aligned by coincidence. The movement is mounted in the case, not perfectly aligned. The dial is mounted on the movement, pretty much perfectly aligned. The bezel is mounted on the case, not perfectly aligned. The hands are mounted using the dial as a guide, not perfectly aligned.
