Case 20 — Service enquiry: information a watchmaker can use
Correction note for “Service enquiry: information a watchmaker can use”: retain the wording beginning “Document when it stops, winding behaviour, recent impacts and…” in the record.

Use fields for order date, promised terms, dated communications, delivery evidence and resolution. Leave unsupported fields blank and separate observations from opinions; this reference is not a seller endorsement.
Case 30 — Comparing versions without mixing case sizes
Limit of the answer in “Comparing versions without mixing case sizes”: “Match reference, dimensions and…” is an excerpt from the discussion, not an independent verification. A reader needs the relevant original material before treating an interpretation as established. Review focus: scope. Keep the stated question separate from any broader claim.
Case 8 — Shipping timeline: separate dispatch, handover and scan events
A tracking page has no new event after a label was created. How can the timeline be discussed without inventing a carrier explanation?

Case 19 — Comparing versions without mixing case sizes
Method note for “Comparing versions without mixing case sizes”: use “Match reference, dimensions and…” as a row heading in a proposed working record.

First identify the caliber, lift-angle setting, winding state and measurement position. Without those fields, the rate, amplitude and beat-error values lack enough context for a useful comparison.

Case 88 — Movement identification: the limits of a rotor photograph · comparison exercise
Summary draft for “Movement identification: the limits of a rotor photograph”: the answer addresses “Describe visible bridge shapes and markings separately…”; the related point is “Ask a qualified watchmaker to inspect it if identification matters for…”. Keep both connected to the opening question, and mark any conclusion needing further records as unresolved. Review focus: comparison. Make the basis of a comparison explicit before interpreting it.
