Looking at mine right now, also sits at around 2 o'clock, never really noticed where it was when it was new. |

Strange - I have a photo of mine when brand new and it was lined up perfectly north (12o clock) |

Probably the rubber inside crown gets compressed a bit from opening and closing and gets that little extra turn. I'm sure it's normal, I'll check my other 6 SAs later and see what they look like |

Perfectly normal, it's less common for them to line up, in fact on older models it was totally random to start with. |

I think as long as it screws down tight you guys are all set. |
