Guessing that the pin or pins

On the back of the numeral do not sit on the centerline of the numeral. Also that the dial has corresponding hole(s) so that when the numeral is placed “right side up”/ correctly the numeral will be positioned on the dial in the intended place. To ensure ...
Saw this on the other forum as well
