Case 22 — Beginner glossary Q&A: complication, caliber, jewel count, power reserve
New here and reading spec sheets for the first time. Four terms keep tripping me up: complication, caliber, jewel count and power reserve. Short definitions would help, and so would a note on which ones actually matter when comparing two everyday watches.
Exercise RWF-29861/22: address this question within its stated limits.
Separate three properties: click count (60 or 120 positions), feel (how firm each click is, and whether there's back-play), and alignment (whether the pip lines up with the 12 o'clock marker at rest). Crisp vs mushy is mostly about feel and back-play. Alignment can be measured, so treat it separately.
Clarification for “Case finishing: distinguish a reflection from a surface mark”: the point beginning “A mark should be assessed across multiple views; aggressive polishing…” 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.
Method note for “QC photographs: perspective or a genuinely tilted index?”: use “Request a level straight-on image with the hands…” 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 112 — Seller review template: facts, dates and unresolved questions · documentation exercise
Summary draft for “Seller review template: facts, dates and unresolved questions”: the answer addresses “Leave unsupported fields blank and separate observations from opinions; this…”; the related point is “Use fields for order date, promised terms, dated…”. Keep both connected to the opening question, and mark any conclusion needing further records as unresolved. Review focus: documentation. Distinguish an original record from a proposed record format.
Method note for “Movement identification: the limits of a rotor photograph”: use “Describe visible bridge shapes and markings separately…” 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.
On anti-reflective coatings: inner-surface AR cuts glare without wear concerns. Outer-surface AR improves legibility further but can scuff over time, and the scuffs show up as hazy patches in certain light. When comparing two watches, check which surfaces are coated. Spec sheets often just say 'AR coated' without saying where.
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 41 — Crown operation: when a forum cannot diagnose the resistance · source wording exercise
A description of stiffness does not establish the cause. What information is safe and useful to collect before an inspection?
Review focus: source wording. Retain the source wording beside any paraphrase. Use the original answer fragment “Stop forcing it and arrange inspection rather than trying…” as the discussion anchor; no new event or result is supplied.
Exercise RWF-20722/41: address this question within its stated limits.
Case 27 — Comparing versions without mixing case sizes
Correction note for “Comparing versions without mixing case sizes”: retain the wording beginning “Match reference, dimensions 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 8 — Comparing versions without mixing case sizes
Clarification for “Comparing versions without mixing case sizes”: the point beginning “Match reference, dimensions 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 7 — Packing photographs: document condition without exposing an address
Method note for “Packing photographs: document condition without exposing an address”: use “Photograph the item and protective packing…” 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 31 — QC checklist: prioritise observable faults over pixel hunting
Method note for “QC checklist: prioritise observable faults over pixel hunting”: use “Start with function, legibility, assembly and…” 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.
Method note for “Comparison thread: 38mm vs 40mm versions of the same field watch, with a dated correction log”: use “Add lug-to-lug, thickness and lug width…” 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 19 — A maintenance log that remains useful after a sale
Summary draft for “A maintenance log that remains useful after a sale”: the answer addresses “Keep the date, work performed, provider invoice reference…”; the related point is “Redact addresses and payment information; do not invent service…”. Keep both connected to the opening question, and mark any conclusion needing further records as unresolved. Review focus: scope. Keep the stated question separate from any broader claim.
