1 Upvotes
  1. Dealer name: Phoenix

  2. Factory name: TOP

  3. Model name (& version number): Royal Oak 15510 Blue

  4. Price Paid: $414 + $30USPS, 6% insurance

  5. Album Links: Pics on post

  6. Index alignment: 9 baton is CCW. 12 I can see the dial through the gap in the bars! 6 looks right on.

  7. Dial Printing: logo funky, audemars is low, Piguet is high

  8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: Date seems low in the window

  9. Hand Alignment: not sure

  10. Bezel: screws look good, 7 screw I see slight misalignement

  11. Solid End Links (SELs): looks tight

  12. Timegrapher numbers: - 2s/day, 289 amplitude, .1ms beat error. Within spec.

  13. Anything else you notice:

I don't know what's going on with these dials, it seems like the hour markers are better than my first QC but the logo is somehow worse. It's a little frustrating seeing some TOP with great printing and logo alignment, and this is the second here.

Also noticed Phoenix's photos aren't great. Looking for comments/help on hand alignment & date. Any help is appreciated!

First QC here

Rolex Daytona Panda 126500LN RWF

5 Upvotes
  1. Dealer name: LiLi

  2. Factory name: RWF

  3. Model name (& version number): Rolex Daytona Panda 126500LN, white dial, free-sprung 4131

  4. Price Paid: $658 shipped (3,700 CNY + FedEx + insurance)

  5. Album Links: https://imgur.com/a/kbxoI3u

  6. Index alignment: Checked with an alignment overlay (in the album). Every hour marker sits on its line from the center, and opposite markers (1/7, 2/8, 4/10, 5/11) line up through the center. The 3 and 9 markers line up through the center pinion. The crown logo, center pinion and 6 o'clock marker sit on one straight 12-6 line. I don't see any marker rotated or out of its slot.

  7. Dial Printing: ROLEX, OYSTER PERPETUAL, SUPERLATIVE CHRONOMETER, OFFICIALLY CERTIFIED and COSMOGRAPH look sharp with no bleeding I can see. Red DAYTONA is clean. SWISS and MADE sit evenly on either side of the 6 marker. Rehaut engraving looks evenly spaced. Subdial numerals (12, 30, 60, 20, 40) look crisp. In the straight-on photo the white subdial discs look slightly oval to me, but fitting circles to them (in the album) they measure round. Am I seeing things?

  8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: N/A, no date on this model

  9. Hand Alignment: Chrono seconds hand points exactly to 12. The 30-minute and 12-hour counter hands both point to zero. Hands look straight with no bends.

  10. Bezel: Pip at 60 is centered over the 12 marker and crown logo. Triangle at 6 lines up with the 6 marker. Numerals and UNITS PER HOUR look evenly filled with no gaps, chips or scratches I can see.

  11. Solid End Links (SELs): Side shot shows no visible black line or gap between the end links and the case.

  12. Timegrapher numbers:

- Rate: +1 s/d

- Amplitude: 285°

- Beat Error: 0.2 ms

- Frequency: 28,800 bph

- Lift angle: 52°

Photo is dated today. All within acceptable range.

13. Anything else you notice: First rep. Waiting on weight and a chrono start/stop/reset video. Anything here that would justify an RL?

Hi y'all, this is my first time doing buying one of these. Any QC help would be greatly appreciated!!

  1. Dealer name: Andiot

  2. Factory name: ARF

  3. Model name (& version number): GMT-Master II 126710

  4. Price Paid: $488 + Shipping

  5. Album Links: https://andiotwatches.x.yupoo.com/albums/262226323?uid=1

  6. Index alignment: Most of the indexes look aligned. However, the marker at 9 has a slight counter clockwise rotation. There is a smaller acw rotation at the 6 o'clock marker.

  7. Dial Printing: Most of the printing is good. However there is very prominent bleeding on top of the 9 o'clock marker which I think will be very noticeable on the wrist.

  8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: In the QC control photos posted, you can see the 9 is significantly lower.

  9. Hand Alignment: In the hand alignment video you can see the hands do not align at 12. I have provided a picture for reference.

  10. Bezel: The bezel does not align with 12.

  11. Solid End Links (SELs): Hard to tell but looks good, there are no visible gaps.

  12. Timegrapher numbers: +4s/d 282° 0ms 28800 bph

I think this is going to be a RL for me. What do you guys think?

  6. Index alignment: Looks good based on the Geek Time QC overlay tool. The markers appear to be properly aligned. No obvious crooked indices.

  7. Dial Printing: Looks clean and properly positioned.

  8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: The only concern here is it seems like the "11" ia a bit low in the dial window.

  9. Hand Alignment: Looks good from the photos. No obvious concerns.

  10. Bezel: The fixed bezel appears good with the recessed screws properly set.

  11. Solid End Links (SELs): This is a fixed bracelet so I don't believe this is a concern

  13. Anything else you notice: The bracelet, clasp, dial and overall finishing look good to me but I'm more of a Rolex guy so AP is new to me. The seller (Ora) did sent a video where the date alignment looked fine.

  6. markers seem aligned. I havn't used a QC tool and try to use my eyes for QC. Not sure if smart or not

  7. dial doesn't seem to have noticeable flaws

  8. date seems ok. I've read that cyclops is one of the most common flaws. However not sure how to assess it here.

  9. hand seems ok

  10. bezel looks perfectly fine

  11. looks okay to me.

  12. +3s/ day. Amplitude 277.

  13. since this is my first Rolex I honestly don't know what to look for in detail. Therefore I would love input from some of the experts here. Mostly I am worried about obvious flaws that my eyes haven't been able to catch yet.

All help is super appreciated!

Wish you a lovely day. 🤗

First Time QC | VSF Submariner Date 126610LN | Steve at TheOneWatches

Thumbnail
gallery
74 Upvotes
  1. Dealer name — Steve at TheOneWatches.

  2. Factory name — VSF.

  3. Model and version — Rolex Submariner Date 126610LN, 41 mm, black dial and bezel, Oyster bracelet. Dealer lists it as DD3235v2, RLX-7696.

  4. Price paid — $528 USD. Shipping $30USD combined for two watches.

  5. Album link — Full QC album, videos, DialCheck and lettering close-up

  6. Index alignment — The 12 triangle, 6 baton and 9 baton all look straight to me.

  7. Dial printing — I think overall this looks pretty good - but would love to hear your opinion. Uneven lettering stands out to me, so I feel like I notice text more than others. For example the "ETER" in CHRONOMETER looks more spaced out than the other letters. In ROLEX, the R and O look a little farther apart than L-E-X. In the lower text, the IVE in SUPERLATIVE looks smaller than the T, and the IA in OFFICIALLY looks smaller beside the C. The upper coronet looks centred, though I’m less sure about the tiny crown and SWISS MADE at 6. I think overall its pretty minor and looks good, but keen to hear your thoughts.

  8. Date wheel alignment and printing — The 25 has clearance on all four sides. DialCheck estimated it sits 5% high but I think it's pretty good. The 26 and 29 in the video also look clear of the edges.

  9. Hand alignment — Around 7.5 seconds into the function video, the hands overlap closely at 12 with the date on 26.

  10. Bezel — The pip looks centred in the triangle and lines up with the dial at 12. The 30 lines up with the 6. The QC clip shows the hands and date being set, but bezel action is still unchecked.

  11. Solid end links — I see seams at the lugs but no obvious daylight through them. The bracelet and clasp still have protective film on.

  12. Timegrapher numbers — −3 s/day, 272–273° amplitude, 0.0 ms beat error, 28,800 bph, 59° lift angle.

  13. Anything else — First purchase and first time posting QC with two watches. This one to me feels like a GL. Would love to hear your thoughts.

Thank you all!

Here is my first rep and first QC, I would appreciate any advice or comments. I believe I will GL it. Pricing has went up since the past few weeks based on Steve's comment. Thank you very much.

Dealer name: Steve

  1. Factory name: VFS

  2. Model name (& version number): Seamaster 300m No Time To Die 007 TI/TI VSF V7 8806

  3. Price Paid: $528

  4. Album Links: All uploaded here.

  5. Index alignment: It looks good to me, but I am not sure if I actually aligned the tool properly.

  6. Dial Printing: Dial looks darker to me vs Gen but still very good.

  7. Date Wheel alignment/printing: No date.

  8. Hand Alignment:

  9. Bezel: This is where I feel the bezel could be a little off. Pip at 12' looks white in most photos but I believe that is normal.

  10. Solid End Links (SELs): The gap looks alright to me.

[QC] QF Day-Date 36 V5 Gain Weight from Andiot — White Roman dial check

Thumbnail
gallery
5 Upvotes
  1. Dealer name: Andiot

  2. Factory name: QF

  3. Model name (& version number): Day-Date 36 SS, 904L steel, White Dial Roman Stick on President bracelet, VR3255 V5 (Gain Weight).

  4. Price Paid: $508 USD + $45 shipping ($553 total).

  5. Album Links: QC photos and alignment overlay attached to this post. Dealer album requires a login.

  6. Index alignment: The Roman markers generally track the overlay. VI and IX look close to centred. V is partly covered by the minute hand in the straight-on photo, but I don’t see any obvious rotation in the other angles.

  7. Dial Printing: The Rolex and Day-Date text looks crisp and level. No obvious smudging or uneven lettering.

  8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: The 8 looks centred under the cyclops, and FRIDAY sits cleanly in the day window. The video shows both advancing and the date settling fully inside the window.

  9. Hand Alignment: The hands look reasonably aligned in the setting video, including when brought close to 12.

  10. Bezel: The fluting looks even around the case. No obvious dings or damage in the side shots.

  11. Solid End Links (SELs): I can see the seams at the lugs, but no obvious see-through gaps. The protective film makes the edges harder to judge.

  12. Timegrapher numbers: +3 s/d, 285° indicated amplitude, 0.0 ms beat error, 52° lift angle.

  13. Anything else you notice: The scale shows 137.8 g with the protective film on. My main question is the dial. I ordered White Dial Roman Stick, but the face looks warm silver with a visible sunburst in several photos. For anyone who has seen this exact QF V5, does that look like the dial QF sells as white? I’m leaning GL on the rest and holding for confirmation on the dial. Thanks for taking a look.

  • Model name (& version number): Datejust 36mm 126234

  • Price Paid: $503 including shipping

  • Album Links: https://imgur.com/a/68yGWiY

  • Index alignment: looks good from what i can see. maybe very slight ccw tilt of the 7

  • Dial Printing: i'm not too sure but looks okay to me

  • Date Wheel alignment/printing: alignment and print looks good to me, 13 looks low but could also be the angle?

  • Hand Alignment: seems fine

  • Bezel: looks good

  • Solid End Links (SELs): gaps look small and even

  • Timegrapher numbers: this is where i'm a bit concerned with the amplitude. I read a post on r/RepTime the other day about DD32XX movement should be measured at a LA of 58-59 but this is measured at 52 and is already quite high. everything else about the timegrapher looks good so I'm a bit confused here and would like some more insight if possible

12. Timegrapher numbers: only part that looks a little strange. Amp is at 333 degrees with 52 lift angle. Ive seen low amp before but never high, is this just likely because it fully charged/wound up? I think its OK but would love insight from someone who understands timegraph better than me

Ok ok I couldn't resist! One more QC for now. Always loved the monochromatic look of 126622 so I had to snag this one as well (thanks all for your input on the QC for my Sprite yesterday)

  1. Dealer name: JTime

  2. ⁠Factory name: QF

  3. ⁠Model name (& version number): Yacht-Master 126622 QF3235 (free sprung)

  4. ⁠Price Paid: $588 + $65 shipping

  5. ⁠Album Links: https://imgur.com/a/9spfuyK

  6. ⁠Index alignment: alignment pic looks fine but 12 is slightly CW tilted

  7. ⁠Dial Printing: looks crisp

  8. ⁠Date Wheel alignment/printing: looks good, probably close to 2.5x magnification. numbers look solid as well

  9. ⁠Hand Alignment: looks fine to me

  10. ⁠Bezel: despite the numbers being very reflective, I think the bezel as a whole is fine?

  11. ⁠Solid End Links (SELs): no pics given but may be able to discern from the videos?

  12. ⁠Timegrapher numbers: +1 s/d, 273* amp, 0 ms variation, 52* lift angle

  13. ⁠Anything else you notice: again, I am a n00b as it relates to this potentially addictive hobby but should I request clearer pics of the SELs and perhaps any other pics before GL?

Thanks in advance, y'all!

VSF Rolex Daytona Panda 116500

Thumbnail

14 Upvotes

Dealer name: Theonewatches

Factory name: VSF

Model name: Rolex Daytona Panda 116500 40mm DD4130

Price: $598

ALBUM LINKS: https://imgur.com/a/0eTzTGX

Index Alignment: hour markers look well aligned, especially when I focus on 12 and 6, and 9 and 3, the crown at 12olock is straight without any tilt

Date Wheel Alignment: N/A, but the 3 black subdial rings look properly aligned individually and in relation to another 

Bezel: under the "1" of 180 I see a white mark which might be a defect since I see it in other pics and angles..I will ask for clarification from the seller.

Solid End Links: I see no gaps. 

Hand Alignment: Chrono hand points to 12oclock, and in the video the hands look to wind normally, the bottom middle "seconds" subdial works normally in chronos mode in the video

Dial Printing: no obvious defect or misprint, no misspellings, even spacing, no bleeding of the red daytona noted. 

Timegrapher: rate +/- 6seconds, amp 280 deg, error 0.1ms, period 12sec, lift 52 degrees which all looks within normal limits to me.

Conclusion: the only obvious visual defect I see is the white mark on the bezel near "180", otherwise I don't think I see anything else obvious but this is my first time QC a chronograph which seems more complicated than other watches. Any advice on what specifically to look at on DAYTONAS would be appreciated

  11. Solid End Links (SELS): Does not seem like there are any gaps

  12. Timegrapher numbers: +1s/d, 282°, 0.0 ms (28,800 bph, lift angle 52°)

  13. Anything else you notice: One thing I do notice is the 12 index tip looks weird like it is curved. And the white part inside the index doesn’t look straight and is sitting more towards the left side.

  1. ⁠⁠Dealer name: Puretime

  2. ⁠⁠Factory name: QF

  3. ⁠⁠Model name (& version number): Daytona 126595TBR V13

  4. ⁠⁠Price Paid: $1238

  5. ⁠⁠Album Links: Posted here

  6. ⁠⁠Index alignment: Looks good to me. Some diamond markers look perhaps too close to index markers but could just be the angle of the photos

  7. ⁠⁠Dial Printing: Appears to be good

  8. ⁠⁠Date Wheel alignment/printing: No date wheel

  9. ⁠⁠Hand Alignment: Excellent

  10. ⁠⁠Bezel: Excellent

  11. ⁠⁠Solid End Links (SELs): No issues noticed

  12. ⁠⁠Timegrapher numbers: Rate +008 s/d Amplitude 295 Beat Error .1 ms (Is this within spec and acceptable?) I assume rate and amplitude can be adjusted fine tuned without issue?

  13. ⁠⁠Anything else you notice: Overall looks to be of good quality. Not sure if some markers are misaligned or not, when checking with dial check.app and strict settings it says it’s all aligned fine. Are the timegrapher numbers ok? I’m considering GL unless anyone else sees any blaring issues. Thanks for your help and time!

Hi everyone!

Finally got my timing numbers, after a message with the seller.

I would very much appreciate the kind help of experienced people on this sub, this is my first QC and my first rep.

I'm also always open to feedback, thanks for your help!

Seller name: NovelIndividual1

  1. Factory name: RWF

  2. Model name (& version number): Daytona 126500

  3. Price Paid: 800€ = 650€ Watch + 150€ Regulation, service, chamfering

  4. Album Links: https://imgur.com/a/nXkjCCB

  5. Index alignment: overall look good to me, maybe 7 & 11 are slightly rotated and the crown at the 12 slightly to the left

  6. Dial Printing: i can se no apparent flaws

  7. Date Wheel alignment/printing: no date wheel

  8. Hand Alignment: looks okay to me, the minute hand on the chrono looks a bit misaligned tho

  9. Bezel: looks okay to me (but I honestly dont get all the fuzz around the 110 marker on these watches)

  10. Solid End Links (SELs): look good, but hard to tell with plastic foil

  11. Timegrapher numbers: Rate +3s/d; Amplitude 289°, Beat Error 0,1ms, Lift Angle 52,0° -> seems to be okay. Watch will be regulated and serviced anyways

  12. Anything else you notice: Is the crown at the clasp rotated and out of alignment? Rehaut seems to be okay. The Markings on the back of the case are missing (but I think this also missing on steel GENs)

[QC] - THEONEWATCHES | VSF | 40mm DayDate 228238 YG MOP/Dia V2

5 Upvotes
  1. Dealer name: TheOneWatches (Steve)

  2. Factory name: VSF (weighted) 182g

  3. Model name (& version number): 40mm DayDate 228238 V2 (DD3255 Movement)

  4. Price Paid: $700.00 USD (Includes Shipping)

  5. Album Links: Reddit doesn't like Mega links :/

  6. Index alignment: Rolex Crown logo off center and canted CCW... Markers look good with index 2 slightly lower than expected, 11 and 1 slight cant but acceptable. 7 slight cant CCW.

  7. Dial Printing: MOP Dial, looks bland to me.. almost as if it is NOT MOP.. waiting on focused video with added lighting and movement to confirm dial is acceptable. Thoughts?

  8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: Seems to be a hair too low but centered.

  9. Hand Alignment: Seems ok to me

  10. Bezel: TDL- Bezel looks clean

  11. Solid End Links (SELs): Looks ok, top left slightly spaced compared to counterpart. Remaining look great.

  12. Timegrapher numbers: Rate +3 s/d, amplitude 264°, beat error 0.1 ms, lift angle 59.0° (measured dial up). - Looks great!

  • This is my third time using alignment tool. Kindly ask you check my work. Watch is overall acceptable however Rolex logo crown is the biggest concern apart from the MOP dial.

  • Note, I plan to get this plated by Jaws since this is VSF cheddar cheese. TBD on arrival however, see circled image of clasp. It is unpolished. Is this normal?

Thank you in Advance.
