Use the same numeral, camera axis and approximate image scale. Keep the uncropped originals alongside the detail crops and distinguish optical balance from physical window alignment.

Clarification for “Lume comparison: keep exposure and charging conditions consistent”: the point beginning “Treat the comparison…” belongs to the question as written. It should not be read as a report that a new check, purchase or experiment has been completed. Review focus: scope. Keep the stated question separate from any broader claim.
Case 17 — Date window centring: compare the same date at the same angle
Different numerals have different optical centres. A comparison mixes two dates and unequal magnification. How can the evidence be improved?

Case 15 — Seller review template: facts, dates and unresolved questions
Correction note for “Seller review template: facts, dates and unresolved questions”: retain the wording beginning “Use fields for order date, promised terms, dated…” in the record. If later material changes it, add the date, the changed wording and the source for that change; do not invent a completed correction here. Keep the stated question separate from any broader claim.
Case 8 — Beginner glossary Q&A: complication, caliber, jewel count, power reserve
For a two-watch comparison, the practical order is usually case dimensions first, then power reserve if you rotate, then caliber for serviceability. Jewel count comes last. Complications only matter if you'll use them. Can you say what the two candidates are, in generic terms like 'dive style vs dress style'? The priorities shift a lot between those.
Case 18 — Lug-to-lug and end-link overhang in wrist photographs
Summary draft for “Lug-to-lug and end-link overhang in wrist photographs”: the answer addresses “Record lug-to-lug and the effective span…”; the related point is “Use a similar camera distance and neutral wrist position; photographs support…”.

Case 38 — Accuracy expectations: is -8 s/d acceptable on an entry-level automatic? · source wording exercise
Clarification for “Accuracy expectations: is -8 s/d acceptable on an entry-level automatic?”: the point beginning “Comparing against a phone clock once a day for a week,…” belongs to the question as written. It should not be read as a report that a new check, purchase or experiment has been completed. Review focus: source wording. Retain the source wording beside any paraphrase.
Case 85 — Bracelet fit: measuring the usable clasp adjustment · comparison exercise
A nominal case diameter says little about a bracelet that cannot be shortened enough. How should a sizing question be documented?
Review focus: comparison. Make the basis of a comparison explicit before interpreting it. Use the original answer fragment “Record wrist circumference, removable links and the clasp…” as the discussion anchor; no new event or result is supplied.
Exercise RWF-09543/85: address this question within its stated limits.
Micro-adjust spacing varies by clasp. Measure the actual change at each setting rather than assuming a standard number of millimetres; compare the usable range with the link length.
