Case 33 — Movement identification: the limits of a rotor photograph
Clarification for “Movement identification: the limits of a rotor photograph”: the point beginning “Describe visible bridge shapes and markings separately…” 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.
Limit of the answer in “Strap dimensions: lug width, taper, thickness and spring bar diameter explained”: “Lug width is the essential one: the inside distance between…” 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 48 — Bracelet fit: half-links, micro-adjust holes and the 'between sizes' problem · source wording exercise
Clarification for “Bracelet fit: half-links, micro-adjust holes and the 'between sizes' problem”: the point beginning “Fit often improves by moving one link from the 6 o'clock…” 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.
Clarification for “Comparing dial colour under different lighting”: the point beginning “State the lighting and…” 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 10 — Comparing dial colour under different lighting
One image was taken beside a window and the other under a warm lamp. How should a colour comparison be qualified?
Exercise RWF-30184/10: address this question within its stated limits.
Limit of the answer in “Bracelet fit: measuring the usable clasp adjustment”: “Request the closed bracelet circumference rather than inferring…” 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.
Clarification for “Clasp photographs: what to request before judging alignment”: the point beginning “Separate cosmetic alignment from whether the clasp engages reliably;…” 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.
Reader check for “First QC request: the minimum useful information”: distinguish the discussion point “State the model configuration, the specific concern and…” from its proposed application. The thread offers a way to reason about the question, without adding a personal experience or a newly observed outcome. Review focus: scope. Keep the stated question separate from any broader claim.

Case 5 — Lug-to-lug and end-link overhang in wrist photographs
Record lug-to-lug and the effective span including rigid end links. Use a similar camera distance and neutral wrist position; photographs support fit discussion but do not replace measurements.
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.
Clarification for “Packing photographs: document condition without exposing an address”: the point beginning “Photograph the item and protective packing…” 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.
Keep the date, work performed, provider invoice reference and test results where available. Redact addresses and payment information; do not invent service events to fill an empty history.
Case 29 — Disputed observation: is this dial colour shift real or just lighting?
Status for now: unresolved. The claim is plausible, but no controlled comparison has been posted. Until one appears, describe it as 'reported, not verified'. When someone posts a same-frame, grey-card comparison under two lighting conditions, the thread can update the status with a date and a link to that post.
Case 47 — QC photographs: perspective or a genuinely tilted index? · source wording exercise
Limit of the answer in “QC photographs: perspective or a genuinely tilted index?”: “Compare two independently aligned images before drawing a conclusion; an overlay…” 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: source wording. Retain the source wording beside any paraphrase.
