Method note for “Crystal reflections: why a dark patch is not a coating test”: use “Compare multiple controlled angles and describe the visible observation without asserting…” 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.

Clarification for “QC photographs: perspective or a genuinely tilted index?”: the point beginning “Request a level straight-on image with the hands…” 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.
First identify the caliber, lift-angle setting, winding state and measurement position. Without those fields, the rate, amplitude and beat-error values lack enough context for a useful comparison.
Case 29 — 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.
Summary draft for “Date window centring: compare the same date at the same angle”: the answer addresses “Keep the uncropped originals alongside the detail crops and distinguish…”; the related point is “Use the same numeral, camera axis…”. 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 7 — What a water-resistance claim does and does not establish
Correction note for “What a water-resistance claim does and does not establish”: retain the wording beginning “Ask a qualified watchmaker about a suitable test for that individual…” 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 5 — Crystal reflections: why a dark patch is not a coating test
Limit of the answer in “Crystal reflections: why a dark patch is not a coating test”: “No single lighting setup settles…” 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.
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.

Case 3 — Seller review template: facts, dates and unresolved questions
What belongs in a useful review template when no actual purchase experience is being asserted?
Exercise RWF-07834/3: address this question within its stated limits.
Case 27 — Accuracy expectations: is -8 s/d acceptable on an entry-level automatic?
Compare the observed rate with the exact caliber and cased-watch specification, if available. An example such as -8 seconds per day cannot be declared acceptable solely from its price category.
