Hi, I'm keen to learn what to watch out for and the jargon, could someone please explain what is meant by the sliderule being far off? Thanks

Reported:
"Chinese fake copy of the Breitling Navitimer 01 model ref AB0120.
- the date display is sunken and slightly out of position
- the subdials are too far apart as the watch uses a cloned Valjoux 7750 movement instead on the in-house B01 movement on the genuine.
- Outer bezel scale incorrect - visible gap between scale markings and inner edge"

slightly afraid to add, as it's among the most visible errors and could be easily corrected, but the red arrow at 10 is much too short.
