Clarification for “Seller review template: facts, dates and unresolved questions”: the point beginning “Use fields for order date, promised terms, 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.

Clarification for “First QC request: the minimum useful information”: the point beginning “State the model configuration, the specific concern 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.

Case 21 — Crystal types: sapphire, mineral and acrylic trade-offs for daily wear

Domed crystals of any material add distortion at the edges, which some people like and others find hard to read at angles. Box-shaped or high-domed crystals also add thickness. If you're comparing two otherwise similar watches, check total thickness against crystal profile before assuming the case itself is thicker.

Clarification for “Service enquiry: information a watchmaker can use”: the point beginning “Document when it stops, winding behaviour, recent impacts 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.

Clarification for “Crystal reflections: why a dark patch is not a coating test”: the point beginning “No single lighting setup settles…” 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.

The reported numbers alone do not establish damage or the need for service. Confirm the setup, collect comparable readings and ask a watchmaker to assess a concerning or changing pattern.

Case 31 — Date window centring: compare the same date at the same angle

Use the same numeral, camera axis and approximate image scale. Keep the uncropped originals alongside the detail crops and distinguish optical balance from physical window alignment.

Case 3 — Comparing versions without mixing case sizes

Two purported versions differ in case diameter and bracelet. How can the comparison avoid attributing every difference to a revision?

Exercise RWF-21086/3: address this question within its stated limits.

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 38 — QC photography: what photos actually help verify a pre-owned listing? · source wording exercise

Correction note for “QC photography: what photos actually help verify a pre-owned listing?”: retain the wording beginning “Flash flattens printing and hides…” 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. Retain the source wording beside any paraphrase.

Case 13 — First QC request: the minimum useful information

Summary draft for “First QC request: the minimum useful information”: the answer addresses “State the model configuration, the specific concern and…”; the related point is “Include complete instrument settings where relevant and say…”. 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 23 — Comparing versions without mixing case sizes

Method note for “Comparing versions without mixing case sizes”: use “Match reference, dimensions 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 3 — Crystal reflections: why a dark patch is not a coating test

No single lighting setup settles that question. Compare multiple controlled angles and describe the visible observation without asserting material specifications that have not been verified.

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 “A maintenance log that remains useful after a sale”: the point beginning “Keep the date, work performed, provider invoice reference…” 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.
