Case 4 — 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 12 — Case finishing: distinguish a reflection from a surface mark

Correction note for “Case finishing: distinguish a reflection from a surface mark”: retain the wording beginning “Ask for photographs with the light moved and…” 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 31 — Seller review template: facts, dates and unresolved questions

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 13 — Bracelet fit: measuring the usable clasp adjustment

Clarification for “Bracelet fit: measuring the usable clasp adjustment”: the point beginning “Record wrist circumference, removable links and the clasp…” 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 31 — Seller review template: facts, dates and unresolved questions

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 51 — Bracelet fit: measuring the usable clasp adjustment · source wording exercise

A nominal case diameter says little about a bracelet that cannot be shortened enough. How should a sizing question be documented?

Review focus: source wording. Retain the source wording beside any paraphrase. Use the original answer fragment “Request the closed bracelet circumference rather than inferring…” as the discussion anchor; no new event or result is supplied.

Exercise RWF-22861/51: address this question within its stated limits.

Case 11 — Seller review template: facts, dates and unresolved questions

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.

Limit of the answer in “Seller review template: facts, dates and unresolved questions”: “Use fields for order date, promised terms, dated…” 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 — Bracelet fit: half-links, micro-adjust holes and the 'between sizes' problem

My bracelet is either slightly too tight or slightly loose with any link combination. The clasp has three micro-adjust holes, and there are no half-links. What are the options before I give up and go to a strap?

Exercise RWF-19403/8: address this question within its stated limits.

Case 22 — Disputed observation: is this dial colour shift real or just lighting?

Suggested protocol. 1) Both dials in one frame. 2) Diffuse daylight, no direct sun, plus a second shot under neutral indoor light. 3) Grey card visible. 4) No filters, no editing. 5) State camera settings if known. If both shots show the same direction of difference, the claim is supported. If the difference flips between lighting conditions, it's most likely lighting.

Method note for “A maintenance log that remains useful after a sale”: use “Keep the date, work performed, provider invoice reference…” 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. Keep the stated question separate from any broader claim.

Case 3 — Clasp photographs: what to request before judging alignment

The available image hides the hinge and only shows the outer surface. Which additional views would answer the question?

Exercise RWF-15832/3: address this question within its stated limits.

Case 32 — Case finishing: distinguish a reflection from a surface mark

Correction note for “Case finishing: distinguish a reflection from a surface mark”: retain the wording beginning “Ask for photographs with the light moved and…” 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 14 — Lug-to-lug and end-link overhang in wrist photographs

Limit of the answer in “Lug-to-lug and end-link overhang in wrist photographs”: “Record lug-to-lug and the effective span…” 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.
