Clarification for “Shipping timeline: separate dispatch, handover and scan events”: the point beginning “Distinguish label creation from physical acceptance and retain 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.

Retain the source wording beside any paraphrase.
Limit of the answer in “Lume comparison: keep exposure and charging conditions consistent”: “Treat the comparison…” 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.
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.
Case 24 — Case finishing: distinguish a reflection from a surface mark
Ask for photographs with the light moved and retain the same viewing angle. A mark should be assessed across multiple views; aggressive polishing is not an appropriate diagnostic test.
Case 152 — Comparing versions without mixing case sizes · uncertainty exercise
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: uncertainty. Leave the unresolved part visible instead of supplying a result.
Case 23 — QC checklist: prioritise observable faults over pixel hunting
Summary draft for “QC checklist: prioritise observable faults over pixel hunting”: the answer addresses “Start with function, legibility, assembly and…”; the related point is “Explain what the full-size image shows, what the crop adds and…”. 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.
Case 35 — Clasp photographs: what to request before judging alignment

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.
Case 14 — Lume comparison: keep exposure and charging conditions consistent
Method note for “Lume comparison: keep exposure and charging conditions consistent”: use “Treat the comparison…” 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.
Ask for a straight-on dial photo with diffuse light and no flash, the full dial in frame, and the hands placed away from the indices (10:10 isn't ideal, because it covers the upper markers). Flash flattens printing and hides lume condition. Diffuse light shows print edges, alignment and any spotting.
Case 2 — QC photographs: perspective or a genuinely tilted index?
Correction note for “QC photographs: perspective or a genuinely tilted index?”: retain the wording beginning “Request a level straight-on image with the hands…” 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 12 — QC photography: what photos actually help verify a pre-owned listing?
Ask for profile shots of both case sides and a lug-top shot at an angle. Polishing shows as rounded edges, softened bevels or lug holes that look shallower than they should. Compare against a known-good reference image of the same model, not memory. A side-by-side tells you far more than a description.
