I think that may be coincidence as I have a SGBP015 and the lettering doesn't line up

I've recently acquired a couple of GS quartz divers - an SBGX335 and an SGBX337. They are fantastic watches - the polished and brushed surfaces are beautiful executed; the finish on the hands is immaculate; accuracy is almost perfect; legibility is first rate; comfort is great; and I really like the overall design.
But I wasn't expecting the crowns to be aligned such that, when they are screwed in, they both have the lettering lined up with the case edge. Not that this is remotely important as far as function is concerned but, unless this is just coincidence, it does seem to be an attention to detail that some other brands don't match.

Here is my SBGP015 crown to demonstrate

Not lined up on either of mine.
OP, I wouldn't say yours were either really? The one one the right especially as it's almost lined-up but not actually so, meaning I don't think it was intentional.
It does make you wonder - is it even possible, given the squishiness of the gaskets, and also the fact that a crown can start to turn in on presumably several points on the threads? I don't suppose every watch they make could ever be 'perfectly' aligned, and instead more akin to what yours show which is nearly nearly almost!
