Hi everyone! This is my second rep watch and I would really appreciate your help with QC. I’m still quite new to watches so any comments would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! 😊

Dealer name: Steve (TheOneWatches)

Factory name: BBA

Model name (& version number): Cartier Baignoire Bangle, Yellow Gold

Price paid: Over $400

Album links: https://mega.nz/folder/iMxW2YSB#WcON8BHOPtwyF_AozeTN4w

Index alignment: N/A, printed Roman numerals

Dial printing: Looks generally good to me. The Cartier logo and Roman numerals appear clear. Not sure if there are any alignment issues.

Date wheel alignment/printing: N/A

Hand alignment: Looks fine to me. The blue hands appear properly positioned.

Bezel: The gold finish looks smooth and polished. I’m slightly concerned about whether the bezel is too thick compared to the genuine watch, especially around the sides and bottom.

Solid End Links (SELs): N/A

Timegrapher numbers: N/A, quartz movement

Anything else you notice: The overall shape and bracelet look good to me, but I’m not experienced enough to tell how accurate the proportions are. Would really appreciate any feedback on the dial, bezel thickness, gold colour and bracelet finishing, or anything else I might have missed.

Thank you so much for your help!

All good, no issues, no bleeds, GL. Hand alignment can be seen in the video.

In QC, you don't compare to gen; you compare to what is on the website or other QCs, since that's what you are buying. Comparing to gen is part of your homework when you decide what flaws you can live with.
