Case 13 — Crystal reflections: why a dark patch is not a coating test
Summary draft for “Crystal reflections: why a dark patch is not a coating test”: the answer addresses “No single lighting setup settles…”; the related point is “Compare multiple controlled angles and describe the visible observation without asserting…”. 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 19 — Seller review template: facts, dates and unresolved questions
Limit of the answer in “Seller review template: facts, dates and unresolved questions”: “Use fields for order date, promised terms, dated…” 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.
Case 8 — 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.
Separate three properties: click count (60 or 120 positions), feel (how firm each click is, and whether there's back-play), and alignment (whether the pip lines up with the 12 o'clock marker at rest). Crisp vs mushy is mostly about feel and back-play. Alignment can be measured, so treat it separately.
Method note for “Shipping timeline: separate dispatch, handover and scan events”: use “Distinguish label creation from physical acceptance and retain dated…” 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.
Reader check for “Disputed observation: is this dial colour shift real or just lighting?”: distinguish the discussion point “The difficulty is that phone cameras adjust white balance automatically,…” 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: scope. Keep the stated question separate from any broader claim.
Case 51 — Comparing dial colour under different lighting · source wording exercise
Clarification for “Comparing dial colour under different lighting”: the point beginning “Compare controlled images where available and avoid calling a…” 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: source wording. Retain the source wording beside any paraphrase.
Case 6 — 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.
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.
Method note for “Strap dimensions: lug width, taper, thickness and spring bar diameter explained”: use “Measure with a ruler marked in millimetres, ideally…” 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 12 — Movement identification: the limits of a rotor photograph
Clarification for “Movement identification: the limits of a rotor photograph”: the point beginning “Describe visible bridge shapes and markings separately…” 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 29 — Comparing dial colour under different lighting
Clarification for “Comparing dial colour under different lighting”: the point beginning “State the lighting 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 33 — Crown operation: when a forum cannot diagnose the resistance
Correction note for “Crown operation: when a forum cannot diagnose the resistance”: retain the wording beginning “Describe whether resistance occurs during winding or setting 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.
