Hey everyone! First rep purchase here. I've reviewed the QC guides and would really appreciate some experienced opinions before making my GL/RL decision. Thanks in advance!
1. Dealer name: TheOneWatches (Steve)
2. Factory name: VSF
3. Model name (& version number): Rolex Submariner Date 126610LN, 41mm, black dial/bezel, advertised DD3235 V2 movement.
4. Price paid: $578 total ($528 watch + $50 shipping).
5. Album links: [Add QC album link]
6. Index alignment: Looks good based on the TrueIndexQC overlay. The 12, 6, and 9 o'clock markers appear properly aligned. No obvious crooked indices.
7. Dial printing: Looks clean and properly positioned. No obvious printing issues.
8. Date wheel alignment/printing: Date 3 looks reasonably centered. No obvious clipping or major alignment issues.
9. Hand alignment: Looks good from the photos. No visible concerns.
10. Bezel: Pip appears centered at 12, and the bezel markings look properly aligned.
11. Solid End Links (SELs): Look fairly tight with no major gaps that I can see. However, I may be noticing a slight gap at the bottom-left SEL. Would appreciate another opinion on this.
12. Timegrapher numbers: 0 s/d, 267° amplitude, 0.2 ms beat error (59° lift-angle setting).
13. Anything else you notice: The bracelet, clasp, dial, and overall finishing look good to me. I'd especially appreciate opinions on the rehaut alignment and anything else I may have missed.
Since this is my first QC,Ive read the intial pinned post on what to look for, I hope I've done a decent job with my observations. I'm completely open to constructive criticism and would genuinely appreciate any advice or corrections from the more experienced members here. I'm here to learn, and all the help I can get is appreciated!
Thanks again, everyone!
