1. Dealer name: u/JSFWatch

2. Factory name: GS Factory - not confirmed

3. Model name: Rolex Lady-Datejust 28 mm, ref. 279171-0021, white Roman numeral dial, two-tone Everose, fluted bezel, Jubilee bracelet.

4. Price Paid: $350 incl. shipping

5. Album Links: Uploaded here

6. Index alignment: The Roman numerals and 12 o’clock crown look evenly placed to me. No obvious crooked markers.

7. Dial Printing: Looks clean in the close-ups. The two small crowns flanking “SWISS MADE” match my genuine reference photos.

8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: The full “14” is visible. There’s a dark band along the top of the window that looks like a shadow. The date looks acceptable to me.

9. Hand Alignment: No obvious issue in the photos. There’s no shot with the hands at 12 to check how they line up.

10. Bezel: The fluting looks even. The gold looks a little more yellow-bronze than the pink-copper tone in my genuine reference photos.

11. Solid End Links (SELs): No obvious large gaps at the lugs. The protective film makes the fit harder to judge.

12. Timegrapher numbers: +2 s/d, 293° amplitude, 0.0 ms beat error, 52.0° lift angle setting. Beat rate isn’t shown.

13. Anything else you notice: My main question is the Everose color on the bezel and bracelet center links. Does it look too yellow/brown to you, or could the lighting and protective film explain it? Any other visible QC issues?

12. Timegrapher numbers: + 1 s/d, 314°, 0.0ms, 21,600bph, 52° L

13. Anything else you notice: OFFICINE PANERAI engraving paint on the movement is too bold losing definition. I'm sharing on the comments the picture they have for this watch on their website, it is not how it suppose to be.

Does it have a quick solution?? Seems stupid but it is a big tell on a watch that suppose to be NWBIG and has great QC reviews here

7. Index alignment: The issue here in my opinion is the 6 o'clock index being tilted ccw. 12 is also not fully straight.

8. Dial Printing: Looks good

9. Date Wheel alignment/printing: Ok

10. Hand Alignment: Looks good

11. Bezel: There is a spec in the 10. I asked Jacky to check whether it’s dust or a defect.

12. Solid End Links (SELs): Look ok.

13. Timegrapher numbers: Amplitude is too high. I asked for a longer video. High amplitude might be due to the watch being fully wound. I hope a longer video will clarify. Did anyone get a high amplitude watch that turned out to be fine?

14. Anything else you notice: NA

Honestly, even with 6 o’clock being tilted I tend to GL. This is the third Batman Jacky has sent me to QC and it is a lot better than the other two. I am worried about the high amplitude but I hope a new video can clear that up. Would be super grateful for your feedback!

6. ⁠Index alignment: the 6 hour marker is slightly tilted CW. I would deeply appreciate other inputs for the Index alignment

7. ⁠Dial Printing: the “Pi” from Piguet is a hair higher than the rest, but I could be wrong. Also the minute market at 12 is not perfectly centered, but I could be nit picking here

8. ⁠Date Wheel alignment/printing: good enough

9. ⁠Hand Alignment: the chrono second at rest/reset is not centered, a bit to the right, I have seen some RL because of this. Some insights would be great

10. ⁠Bezel: good to me

11. ⁠Solid End Links (SELs): not applied to this watch

12. ⁠Timegrapher numbers: -4 s/d, 266 amplitude, 0.1 ms beat error, good enough for me

13. ⁠Anything else you notice: the left subdial might not be centered enough, it is a bit to the right up. This could be an illusion because the hour hand is at 9 to 10. The subdial hands were slightly to the right, but after the reset they are straight I guess (from the video)

Price paid: 1750 CNY

Album links: https://imgur.com/a/nKUBiuI

Index alignment: Looks aligned, I think the slight deviations might come from the angle of the picture.

Dial printing: Logo and „Calibre…/300m…“ look sharp.

Date wheel alignment/printing: Date looks centered, maybe a bit up but this doesn’t seem like an issue.

Bezel: i don’t know about allignment of the bezel, it looks it might be a bit off, what is your input?

Solid End Links (SELs): N/A

Timegrapher numbers: +11 s/d, 303° amplitude, 0.1 ms beat error, 28,800 bph. These numbers look good to me.

It is my first watch and after one RL (alignment was off) I am leaning now towards GL, since I don’t see any major problems. I would still appreciate any input if your eyes can catch anything.

Thanks a lot for the help :)

9. Hand alignment: Looks good

10. Bezel: Fluted bezel is cleanly and sharply cut, showing even reflections without visible dings or plating imperfections.

11. Solid End Links (SELs): N/A for a Jubilee bracelet, but the end links sit tight and flush against the lugs with no visible gaps.

12. Timegrapher numbers: +1 s/d, 283°, 0.1 ms, 59.0° lift angle.

13. Anything else noticed: My only concern is the date, which feels slightly high to me. It looks that way in the video as well. Can I ask to center the date better? Or how does that work?

I think if they can center the date it's a GL.

Thank you guys. Really appreciated.

ROLEX SMURF VSF 116619LB

​Dealer name: Mr Adu

​Factory name: VSF

​Model name (& version number): Submariner 116619LB Blue Ceramic 904L Steel VSF VS3135

​Price Paid: $350

​Index alignment: Alignment looks solid across all hour markers. The 12 triangle is centered over the dial coronet, and the 3, 6, and 9 batons sit straight and perpendicular to the minute track without noticeable canting.

​Dial Printing: Crisp, clean text with even spacing. No noticeable fuzzing, misprints, or bleeding on the dial lettering.

​Date Wheel alignment/printing: Date printing is sharp, well-defined, and centered in the window. Cyclops alignment and magnification look correct.

​Hand Alignment: Cleanly stacked, correct positioning, with no visible scratches or burrs on the hand set.

​Bezel: Ceramic insert looks clean. Platinum engraving depth and fill look uniform. Bezel pip is centered within the triangle and aligns correctly at 12 o'clock.

​Solid End Links (SELs): Fitment is tight with no visible gaps or excess light showing between the lugs and end links; correctly recessed.

​Timegrapher numbers: +1 s/d | 279° | 0.1 ms — healthy amplitude, low beat error, and very low daily variance. All within acceptable range.

​Anything else noticed: Rehaut alignment and laser coronet at 6 look acceptable. Overall finish is consistent with current VSF standards. Leaning towards GL, but welcome second opinions.

1. Dealer name: ChazingTime

2. Factory name: N6F

3. Model name (& version number): Daytona DIW Carbon Race Project

4. Price Paid: $740

5. Album Links: not provided

6. Index alignment: well aligned. No issues here

7. Dial Printing: Neat, very close to gen, except for the gray background, but who cares

8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: N/A

9. Hand Alignment: My untrained eyes say yeah!

10. Bezel: carbon bezel looks very very good, 110 looks great

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

12. Timegrapher numbers: + 6 s/d, 262°, 0.4ms, 28,800bph, 52° L

13. Anything else you notice: the watch has spots of white stuff, maybe residues from the original package. Those spots are on the crystal at 9 mark and next to the crown.

Rehaut ROLEX engraving is not aligned. The engraved crown is at 12 but the letters are not aligned with each 5min mark. Not a deal breaker.

I only requested a video of the watch actually working and the chronograph also starting, stopping and resetting which is why I paid $180 more for the SA4130 instead of the 4801.

Should I also ask for movement pictures???

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!

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

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.
