Clarification for “Date window centring: compare the same date at the same angle”: the point beginning “Use the same numeral, camera axis…” 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 30 — Crown operation: when a forum cannot diagnose the resistance
Method note for “Crown operation: when a forum cannot diagnose the resistance”: use “Describe whether resistance occurs during winding or setting 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.
Case 47 — Model comparison: dive bezel action and alignment, how to compare fairly · source wording exercise
Limit of the answer in “Model comparison: dive bezel action and alignment, how to compare fairly”: “Crisp vs mushy is mostly about…” 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: source wording. Retain the source wording beside any paraphrase.
Status for now: unresolved. The claim is plausible, but no controlled comparison has been posted. Until one appears, describe it as 'reported, not verified'. When someone posts a same-frame, grey-card comparison under two lighting conditions, the thread can update the status with a date and a link to that post.

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.
Case 2 — Crystal types: sapphire, mineral and acrylic trade-offs for daily wear
Summary. Pick sapphire for scratch resistance in low-impact use, acrylic for impact tolerance and easy polishing, and mineral as a low-cost middle option. Prefer inner-surface AR if you're worried about wear. Look at crystal profile when comparing thickness. Choose by how you'll use the watch, not by the material label.
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.
Case 21 — Magnetism and rate: record evidence before naming a cause
Correction note for “Magnetism and rate: record evidence before naming a cause”: retain the wording beginning “Record the change and the circumstances without treating…” 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 27 — 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 “Clasp photographs: what to request before judging alignment”: use “Request open and closed views from both sides,…” 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 42 — Shipping timeline: separate dispatch, handover and scan events · source wording exercise
Reader check for “Shipping timeline: separate dispatch, handover and scan events”: distinguish the discussion point “Ask the sender or carrier for clarification; missing scans alone…” from its proposed application. The thread offers a way to reason about the question, without adding a personal experience or a newly observed outcome. Review focus: source wording. Retain the source wording beside any paraphrase.
Case 14 — 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.
