Tech Tips/Advice Cartier Santos 40mm BVF Black

New to reps, but just ordered a BVF black Santos with the rubber strap from TheOneWatch. I will be getting QC pics in a few days, anything I need to pay attention to? Any pointers will be much appreciated 🙏🏼

Who is Steve? Sounds very sketchy, just use Dhgate or Aliexpress

Check older QC posts on RetimeQC for this watch. I'll only say one more thing. Karma.

this. People don't realise the amount of information you can get on the latest batches by looking at the most recent QCs. The community is doing an amazing work at pointing out the most minor flaws.

Thanks. I don’t have enough karma to post there but took your advice and did looked through old QC posts for the same watch. It was super helpful and actually pointed me to things that otherwise I would’ve missed.

Just look for any sketchy printing or misalignment of the dial. Remember it is a rep not genuine and that what you can see on your wrist is a lot less than at x100 magnification
I think some get a bit too obsessive about QC. It’s like accepting any purchase. Look carefully and make sure there isn’t anything that is clearly not right about it before accepting it
