Case 43 — Packing photographs: document condition without exposing an address · source wording exercise
Clarification for “Packing photographs: document condition without exposing an address”: the point beginning “Remove names, addresses, barcodes and tracking tokens from public…” 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.
Correction note for “Comparing dial colour under different lighting”: retain the wording beginning “State the lighting 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 15 — Seller review template: facts, dates and unresolved questions
Method note for “Seller review template: facts, dates and unresolved questions”: use “Use fields for order date, promised terms, 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.
Case 47 — QC photography: what photos actually help verify a pre-owned listing? · source wording exercise
Clarification for “QC photography: what photos actually help verify a pre-owned listing?”: the point beginning “Flash flattens printing and hides…” 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.
Describe whether resistance occurs during winding or setting and whether the crown engages consistently. Stop forcing it and arrange inspection rather than trying an unverified repair from a thread.
Clarification for “Lume comparison: keep exposure and charging conditions consistent”: the point beginning “Treat the comparison…” 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 12 — Model comparison: dive bezel action and alignment, how to compare fairly
Back-play is the most objective feel measurement. Set the bezel on a click and gently push it the other way without forcing it. Noticeable wobble before it engages means play. A little is common and within normal production, but if one model has visible movement and the other doesn't, that's a real difference you can describe.
Case 31 — QC photography: what photos actually help verify a pre-owned listing?
A dated note in the frame can support a claim that photographs are recent, but it is not conclusive proof of ownership, authenticity or an honest transaction. Treat it as one limited check alongside independent verification.
Case 12 — Crown operation: when a forum cannot diagnose the resistance
Summary draft for “Crown operation: when a forum cannot diagnose the resistance”: the answer addresses “Describe whether resistance occurs during winding or setting and…”; the related point is “Stop forcing it and arrange inspection rather than trying…”. 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 4 — Lume questions: why does my lume fade so quickly, and how should I compare it?
Use a consistent charge, fixed exposure and several elapsed-time observations. Record readability and the conditions rather than applying an unsupported universal fade-time threshold.
Case 14 — First QC request: the minimum useful information
State the model configuration, the specific concern and links to clear redacted images. Include complete instrument settings where relevant and say explicitly what evidence is missing.
Case 5 — A maintenance log that remains useful after a sale
Keep the date, work performed, provider invoice reference and test results where available. Redact addresses and payment information; do not invent service events to fill an empty history.
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.
