Case 16 — Bracelet fit: half-links, micro-adjust holes and the 'between sizes' problem
Resolution checklist. 1) Rebalance links around the clasp. 2) Test every micro-adjust hole with each link count. 3) Check fit morning and afternoon. 4) Look for half-links by bracelet reference. 5) Accept slightly loose if the head is light. If none of that works, a strap with finer hole spacing is a reasonable conclusion, not a failure.
Clarification for “QC photographs: perspective or a genuinely tilted index?”: the point beginning “Compare two independently aligned images before drawing a conclusion; an overlay…” 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 19 — 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.

Reader check for “Strap dimensions: lug width, taper, thickness and spring bar diameter explained”: distinguish the discussion point “Measure with a ruler marked in millimetres, ideally…” from its proposed application.

Case 10 — QC photographs: perspective or a genuinely tilted index?
A marker can look tilted when the camera is above the dial axis. What extra image would separate perspective from an assembly issue?
Exercise RWF-20056/10: address this question within its stated limits.
Case 38 — Seller review template: facts, dates and unresolved questions · source wording exercise
Summary draft for “Seller review template: facts, dates and unresolved questions”: the answer addresses “Leave unsupported fields blank and separate observations from opinions; this…”; the related point is “Use fields for order date, promised terms, dated…”. Keep both connected to the opening question, and mark any conclusion needing further records as unresolved. Review focus: source wording. Retain the source wording beside any paraphrase.
Case 4 — QC photographs: perspective or a genuinely tilted index?
A marker can look tilted when the camera is above the dial axis. What extra image would separate perspective from an assembly issue?
Exercise RWF-17722/4: address this question within its stated limits.
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.
Ask for a straight-on dial photo with diffuse light and no flash, the full dial in frame, and the hands placed away from the indices (10:10 isn't ideal, because it covers the upper markers). Flash flattens printing and hides lume condition. Diffuse light shows print edges, alignment and any spotting.

Case 13 — Comparing dial colour under different lighting
Method note for “Comparing dial colour under different lighting”: use “State the lighting 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.
