Clarification for “QC checklist: prioritise observable faults over pixel hunting”: the point beginning “Start with function, legibility, assembly 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.

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.
Case 115 — Case finishing: distinguish a reflection from a surface mark · documentation exercise
Limit of the answer in “Case finishing: distinguish a reflection from a surface mark”: “A mark should be assessed across multiple views; aggressive polishing…” 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: documentation. Distinguish an original record from a proposed record format.
Clarification for “Crown operation: when a forum cannot diagnose the resistance”: the point beginning “Describe whether resistance occurs during winding or setting 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.
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.
Correction note for “QC checklist: prioritise observable faults over pixel hunting”: retain the wording beginning “Start with function, legibility, assembly 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 43 — Comparing versions without mixing case sizes · source wording exercise
Summary draft for “Comparing versions without mixing case sizes”: the answer addresses “List confirmed differences separately from seller descriptions and date the comparison…”; the related point is “Match reference, dimensions and…”. Keep both connected to the opening question, and mark any conclusion needing further records as unresolved. Review focus: source wording. Retain the source wording beside any paraphrase.
Case 30 — Magnetism and rate: record evidence before naming a cause
Method note for “Magnetism and rate: record evidence before naming a cause”: use “Record the change and the circumstances without treating…” 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 11 — Magnetism and rate: record evidence before naming a cause
A sudden rate change is being attributed to magnetism without a measurement. How should the discussion be structured?
Exercise RWF-18633/11: address this question within its stated limits.
Case 10 — First QC request: the minimum useful information
State the model configuration, the specific concern and links to clear redacted images. Include complete instrument settings where relevant and say explicitly what evidence is missing.
Case 34 — A maintenance log that remains useful after a sale
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 22 — Forum comparison archive: link the evidence and the correction
Limit of the answer in “Forum comparison archive: link the evidence and the correction”: “Add a dated correction near the original conclusion…” 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.
Distinguish label creation from physical acceptance and retain dated event text with personal details removed. Ask the sender or carrier for clarification; missing scans alone do not establish loss or seizure.
A notation like 20/16 means 20mm at the lugs, tapering to 16mm at the buckle. Taper affects look and comfort more than fit. A strong taper suits smaller and dressier cases, a straight strap suits sport watches. Your buckle or clasp also has to match the narrow end, so check that if you want to reuse an existing buckle.
State the lighting and white-balance limitations. Compare controlled images where available and avoid calling a colour defect from differently processed photographs.
