Document spring-bar diameter, end-tip fit and the strap’s clearance using appropriate measuring tools. If dimensions or compatibility are uncertain, ask a watchmaker rather than forcing a bar or substituting an unsuitable part.
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.
