Im wondering the same as others here - is this your watch? Since it is pad printed it is very strange how indexes could be missing in su a sharp and precise way.
Never seen that before. BUT I’ve seen the other pictures of this watch just now (just to try and be sure it wasn’t a photoshop) and it looks legit.

As others have said, not sure how this happened only once, and not sure how it happens if pad printed (although I guess it would be a simple fault whereby the markers are somehow not primed).
Perhaps it was a batch of errors and one or two slipped through QC.
Dial printer who is one person, doing the printing by hand, one at a time, doesn’t notice. Watchmaker who assembles from start to finish doesn’t notice, QC doesn’t notice. Salesman doesn’t notice. costumer doesn’t notice when making the purchase. Hmmm.. 🤔
Mistakes really do happen and aren't noticed, even after the time of sale. This Revue Thommen is an example. Spot* the fault? (*Or remember it. I've posted it before.)
I recall a pretty crooked double index marker at 12 on a 5711 not the long ago. One of those that might fly under the radar but once you see it that’s all you see! [nt]
Why mention to FPJ? To determine legitimacy? Looking at some others of the pictures the pin buckle does not look good. Perhaps it’s an early watch / buckle, buts the engraving of FP Journe is very rough.
