Case 31 — Forum comparison archive: link the evidence and the correction
A comparison has been corrected after a new photograph arrived. How should the original thread remain useful?
Exercise RWF-28769/31: address this question within its stated limits.
Correction note for “Bracelet fit: measuring the usable clasp adjustment”: retain the wording beginning “Record wrist circumference, removable links and the clasp…” 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.
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.
Clarification for “Seller review template: facts, dates and unresolved questions”: the point beginning “Use fields for order date, promised terms, dated…” 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 41 — Bracelet fit: measuring the usable clasp adjustment · source wording exercise
Method note for “Bracelet fit: measuring the usable clasp adjustment”: use “Request the closed bracelet circumference rather than inferring…” 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. Retain the source wording beside any paraphrase.

Case 33 — Comparison thread: 38mm vs 40mm versions of the same field watch, with a dated correction log
Before the table goes live, a question: are you comparing current production only, or older references too? Dial printing, lume colour and crown signing often changed between batches. If older pieces are in scope, add a production-period column, or every disagreement will look like an error when it's really a running change.
Case 38 — Magnetism and rate: record evidence before naming a cause · source wording exercise

Ask a qualified watchmaker about a suitable test for that individual case and record the test date and method. A photograph or a caseback engraving is not proof of water resistance.

Case 24 — Comparing versions without mixing case sizes
