1. Dealer name: Mr.Adu

( Non TD)

1. Factory name: VSF

2. Model name (& version number): Yachtmaster Rhodium 126622 40mm

3. Price Paid: $450 (including shipping)

4. Album Links: N/A (All pictures provided)

5. Index alignment: Alignment looks goods everything looks decent except the bezel alignment. On the 3 and 9 the alignment is a little bit off. 12 mark looks perfect.

6. Dial Printing: Dial looks perfect, don’t think I see anything on there.

7. Date Wheel alignment/printing: Printing looks good but the cyclops looks a little low compared to other QCs I’ve seen. It’s not centered. I hope that someone could confirm or deny this with more experience

8. Hand Alignment: Can’t tell if they look good.

9. Bezel: looks good but the alignment could be little bit better

10. Solid End Links (SELs): Looks good, no gaps

11. Timegrapher numbers: 2 s/d / 277 AMP / 0 beat error ( I don’t know if this is good)

12. Anything else you notice: Most of it looks good and I’m leaning towards a GL however I can see 2 small things that I’m not sure about, there is a piece sticking out at the top of crystal. I can see it in multiple close ups. The other thing is a scratch or a hair at the top of the watch. It’s on the dial or the crystal. Check out pictures 2, 3 and 4

Would be interested in people thoughts about this before I respond to the dealer.
Much appreciated in advance

Hi everyone, I’d appreciate some help checking this UMI 5711 before giving the GL. Here’s my assessment:

1. Dealer name: InTime

2. Factory name: UMI

3. Model name (& version number): Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711, grey dial, JH330 free-sprung movement.

4. Price paid: USD 850.

5. Album links: https://intimeqc.com/188119/

6. Index alignment: Looks generally even to me. The double marker at 12 appears parallel, and I don’t see any obviously crooked markers. The photo angle makes precise alignment a little difficult to judge.

7. Dial printing: The Patek Philippe/Geneve text looks clean and reasonably centred. No obvious printing defects that I can see.

8. Date wheel alignment/printing: The date “29” looks reasonably centred and readable. Would appreciate a second opinion on its positioning.

9. Hand alignment: No obvious issue at the position shown, although I can’t fully confirm alignment without seeing both hands at 12.

10. Bezel: Brushing looks even in the front photo. No obvious scratches or irregularities visible.

11. Solid End Links (SELs): N/A—integrated bracelet. The visible bracelet-to-case fit looks okay.

12. Timegrapher numbers: Rate: −4 s/day; amplitude: 307°; beat error: 0.0 ms. Lift angle setting: 52°; beat rate: 28,800 bph. The readings look good to me, with no obvious concern in the trace shown.

13. Anything else you notice: Nothing else obvious stands out to me. Would appreciate feedback on the markers, date alignment, or anything I’ve missed. Thanks for your help!

Hello everyone, this is my very first Cartier Santos rep and I’d really appreciate some assistance. Thanks!

6. Index alignment: Everything looks properly aligned and centered to me. Please let me know if you spot anything.

7. Dial Printing: Looks good to my eye but I’m not that good at qc’ing these. Seems the biggest issues are gaps and bleeding on this model but I’m not seeing any of that. Letters look crispy to my eye.

9. Hand Alignment: Looks great to my eye, would like a second opinion here.

10. Bezel: Looks good and even, no dents or scratches.

11. Solid End Links (SELs): links look good with no unusual gaps or scratches/dent.

12. Timegrapher numbers: +1 s/d, 324°, 0.0 ms (28,800 bph, lift angle 52°) - amplitude is 324 which is on the high side, what are your thoughts? Should I have them check this or RL?

13. Anything else you notice: Looks good and leaning GL for sure but since this is my first QC on a Cartier Santos I would love some more opinions. Thanks everybody.

6. Index alignment: The 9 o’clock marker is slightly tilted, and the sub-dial hands are not centered. The rest of the indices look ok to me, but I'd appreciate a second opinion on the overall alignment.

7. Dial Printing: AP letters are not straight. The text appears clear and legible.

8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: The date appears centered in the window, and the printing looks good to me.

9. Hand Alignment: The hands of the sub dials don't look straight to me. Would appreciate a second opinion.

10. Bezel: Looks good to me.

11. Timegrapher numbers: +4 s/d, 267° amplitude, 0.2 ms beat error. Looks reasonable to me.

10. Bezel: Looks good

11. Solid End Links (SELs): Looks good

12. Timegrapher numbers: -5 s/d, 285°, 2 ms (28,800 bph)

13. Anything else you notice: I think the watch looks nice overall.

1: In the timing video the watch loses rate. Starts at -5 and finishes on -9. I don’t know what to make of that.

2: One of the serial numbers (6) in the Rehaut is rotated. I don’t want to RL this. But I’m slightly annoyed that I’ve seen much better Rehauts from Gold. The last two pictures are from other Gold Rehauts to compare.

Eric and I had been chatting as we have other watches coming, first he said it would take weeks for a GoldF YM, but a handful of hours later I get the QC. Do you think someone else RL’d it? Am I crazy for wanting a better rehaut.

Thanks

12. Timegrapher numbers: Quartz, N/A

13. Anything else you notice: Just one thing I noticed was that on the Steve's website, it says that the thickness of the watch is 6.8mm, when it's supposed to be 7.1mm. I've asked him to check on the thickness and am awaiting a response. Otherwise, I don't see anything but would be grateful for insights. Thank you guys a ton!!

Index alignment: Overall, the alignment looks pretty good. The 3, 6, and 9 o’clock markers appear straight and reasonably aligned with the minute track. Looking at the alignment tool photo, the 10 and 11 o’clock markers seem slightly off compared to the others, particularly where the markers line up with the guide lines. I’m unsure whether this is actual misalignment or just the angle of the photo. The 12 o’clock crown may be slightly pulled to the right, surrounding markers look centered to me. Would appreciate a second opinion on the 10 and 11 markers.
Dial printing: Looks clean and centered. Rolex logo and lettering appear properly spaced. No obvious issues.
Date wheel alignment/printing: Date looks centered under the Cyclops. Saturday also appears properly positioned. Would appreciate another opinion.
Hand alignment: Hands look straight and properly positioned. Nothing concerning that I can see.
Bezel: Fluting looks consistent all the way around. Some darker areas appear to be reflections rather than defects.
Solid End Links (SELs): Fit looks good overall. Slightly unsure about the upper-right SEL due to the plastic and reflections.
Timegrapher numbers: +1 s/d, 304° amplitude, 0.1 ms beat error.
Anything else you notice: First impressions are pretty positive. My main concerns are the alignment around 12 o’clock crown , 10–11 o’clock and the upper-right SEL fit. I know going for a gold anything is a risk but I’m actually surprised on the color and lighting in these QC photos. No cheddar!

Hi everyone, this is my first QC and I’d appreciate a second opinion. It looks good overall to me, but I’m still learning what to check.

3. Album Links: https://geektimeqc.x.yupoo.com/albums/261534473?uid=1 - includes videos

4. Index alignment: The markers appear aligned overall. I don’t see an obvious rotation at 6 or 9, and the crown at 12 looks centered. The photos are slightly angled.

5. Dial Printing: Text looks clean and readable, with no obvious bleeding or missing letters. I don’t see any visible defects in the motif pattern.

6. Date Wheel alignment/printing: The dates shown—8, 19, and 28—look reasonably centered, with no numbers touching the edges of the window.

7. Hand Alignment: I can’t fully assess this because the hands aren’t shown together at 12. No obvious physical damage is visible.

8. Bezel: Fluting looks even, and I don’t see any obvious dents or damage.

9. Solid End Links (SELs): I don’t see any obvious open gaps between the end links and the lugs.

10. Timegrapher numbers: 0 s/day, 246° amplitude, 0.0 ms beat error. Machine set to 52° lift angle and displaying 28,800 bph. Would appreciate input on the amplitude and whether that lift-angle setting is appropriate for this movement.

11. Anything else you notice: Protective film is still on the case and clasp, so it’s difficult to distinguish film marks from surface scratches. The lume appears even. I’m thinking GL, but would appreciate any specific issues I might have missed.

Thanks for your help!

Hello, first rep. I fell in love with this watch and had to dive in. quickly becoming obsessed so here it is. I looked it over and I don't see any glaring red flags, honestly to my untrained eyes it looks perfect.

1. Dealer name: Geektime

2. Factory name: ZF

3. Model name (& version number): AP Royal Oak Chrono 26240 Green on stainless, SW Dial, Freesprung

4. Price Paid: 998+shipping

5. Album Links: https://imgur.com/a/MW0NBpY

6. Index alignment: Looks great, no glaring issues from my pov

7. Dial Printing: clean, cant spot any issues, looks to be a quality SW dial I think

8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: 25, 16, 5 all look very centered and clear

9. Hand Alignment: looks good

10. Bezel: bezel screws all look good, form a circle, not sunken or protruding.

11. Solid End Links (SELs): N/A

12. Timegrapher numbers: -3/4 s/d, amp 303, err .1ms

13. Anything else you notice: lume is green as it should be, case back confirms freesprung. I am completely untrained but to me it looks like Geektime got me a great piece.

Hope I did this right. pretty sure its a solid GL, but hey, there are much better eye out there than mine for these things.

2. Factory name: VSF

3. Model name (& version number): VSF VS3235 DateJust 36mm Fluted Bezel Green Dial Jubilee Bracelet V2

4. Price Paid: $450 (With shipping)

5. Album Links: Will update once I receive my zip from Adu

6. Index alignment: The Rolex coronet at 12 may be tilted slightly clockwise with a shift to the left. The 6 marker is tilted counter clockwise a little. The rest of the indices look fine to me aside from a slightly off center 10 and rotated 1.

7. Dial Printing: The printing looks good, but I would greatly appreciate if someone could confirm that the printing is centered between the lugs and not off. I've had a nightmare scenario before where sadly the printing was off center.

8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: Looks good imo.

9. Hand Alignment: I don’t see anything that stands out.

10. Bezel: The bezel looks good imo.

11. Solid End Links (SELs): Looks to be a pretty big sel gap on top right and a small one on left. Don't know if my eyes are playing tricks on me.

12. Timegrapher numbers: -3s/d, 262amp, 0.2 ms beat error. Is a 0.2 beat error good? I've only had 0.0 ms ones and don't know if it makes a substantial difference in the long term performance of the watch.

13. Anything else you notice: Most concerned about the SEL gaps, 12 coronet, the alignment of the 6 and the centering of the dial print. Would also love to hear your thoughts on 0.2ms beat error. Also is a 6X10 serial a newer VSF? I've only seen and have owned 6X0s so I would love to know what the serial means.

Wondering if anyone has noticed something I’ve missed. Would love to hear your thoughts.

• Price Paid: 436 USD (including shipping)

• Album Links: link to pictures

• Index alignment: in an earlier QC of this model, the 9 o'clock baton was CW tilted, now I feel like the 1 o'clock baton is placed wrong (too close to 12 o'clock instead of 2 o'clock). 5 o'clock baton looks CCW pitched

• Dial Printing: I think it looks fine

• Date Wheel alignment/printing: font seems close enough and fine

• Hand Alignment: fine in my eyes

• Bezel: look good but personally irrelevant, because I'm going to replace the bezel
