Summary draft for “Seller review template: facts, dates and unresolved questions”: the answer addresses “Use fields for order date, promised terms, dated…”; the related point is “Leave unsupported fields blank and separate observations from opinions; this…”. Keep both connected to the opening question, and mark any conclusion needing further records as unresolved. Review focus: scope. Keep the stated question separate from any broader claim.
Case 30 — Case finishing: distinguish a reflection from a surface mark
Ask for photographs with the light moved and retain the same viewing angle. A mark should be assessed across multiple views; aggressive polishing is not an appropriate diagnostic test.
Case 26 — Movement identification: the limits of a rotor photograph
Limit of the answer in “Movement identification: the limits of a rotor photograph”: “Describe visible bridge shapes and markings separately…” is an excerpt from the discussion, not an independent verification.

Use a correction row with date, old value, revised value and evidence. A worked example could change a lug-width entry from 20 to 22 mm; do not present that example as a correction to a real model.
A bright initial glow followed by a steep drop is normal for photoluminescent pigments. Afterglow fades fastest in the first minutes and then settles to a dim, long-lasting level that dark-adapted eyes can still read. The real question is whether it's readable after an hour in darkness, not how it looks right after charging.

Add lug-to-lug, thickness and lug width as separate rows. Diameter alone tells you little about wearability. Two cases 2mm apart in diameter can be within 1mm of each other lug to lug, and that number decides whether the watch overhangs a small wrist. Also give the source for each figure: manufacturer sheet, caliper measurement, or catalogue listing.

Case 10 — Shipping timeline: separate dispatch, handover and scan events

Method note for “Accuracy expectations: is -8 s/d acceptable on an entry-level automatic?”: use “Comparing against a phone clock once a day for a week,…” as a row heading in a proposed working record. Put the statement, its supporting source or measurement, and any unresolved detail in separate fields. This proposes a format; it supplies no additional evidence.

On anti-reflective coatings: inner-surface AR cuts glare without wear concerns. Outer-surface AR improves legibility further but can scuff over time, and the scuffs show up as hazy patches in certain light. When comparing two watches, check which surfaces are coated. Spec sheets often just say 'AR coated' without saying where.
