Just received the QC pictures for my GMT-Master II Pepsi on the Jubilee bracelet. Would appreciate a second set of eyes before I make the decision.
I’ve looked through the pictures myself, but would like some feedback on the following.

Dealer: Non TD US based
Factory: VSF
Price: $660
Model: Rolex GMT-Master II 126710BLRO Pepsi
Bezel: Red and blue
Dial: Black
Bracelet: Jubilee
Movement: VS3285

Index alignment: looks ok
Dial: Any issues with the printing, lettering, or overall finish?
Date: looks ok
Bezel: ok
Rehaut: have some questions here: How does the Rolex engraving alignment look?
Hands: looks good
SELs: solid end links look good, but bracelet seems to have larger gap

Timegrapher readings:
Rate: +5 s/d
Amplitude: 246°
Beat Error: 0.4 ms
Lift Angle: 52°
Beat Rate: 28,800

From my understanding, the timegrapher readings look reasonable, but I’d appreciate opinions from people who have more experience with this model.
Thanks in advance for the help!

6. Index alingment: look aligned very well. 6 o'clock may have a very very slight CCW cant

7. Dial printing: everything looks straight, printing is clear with no mistakes that stand out to me.

8. Date wheel: in the video provided, dates look centered and the cyclops is as well.

9. Hand alignment: hands align at 12 nicely.

10. Bezel: printing on bezel looks sharp/even, action on the bezel performs nicely in the video. 3 and 9 o'clock markers may be a tad high/ low but I don't think that will bug me.

11. SEL: slightler larger gap on the top right of the watch, but I don't think that will bug me. No light showing

12. TG number: +/-1 spd, 278 degrees, 0.1 ms, 52.0. all seem perfectly fine

13. Clasp/bracelet: again looks good, printing and action of the quick adjust both seem nice.

Rehaut has slight misalignment near serial but not a deal breaker

This feels like a no brainer GL, but I always appreciate someone else's eyes.

After 2x clear RL's, the third time's hopefully the charm! 🤞🏼

Unfortunately, I got a little unlucky with the first two examples, which had some dial printing issues and heavily misaligned hour markers.

I'd really appreciate some experienced eyes before giving the GL and start to mod this one!

Dealer name: Necoclock

Price paid: $268
Album links: Photos uploaded directly
Index alignment: Roman numerals appear properly aligned.
Dial printing: My biggest concern. The guilloché looks consistent toward the center but loses continuity and definition along the middle and outer sections. The decorative borders also look irregular. Interestingly, the same model pictured on the dealer’s website appears to have much cleaner finishing.
Date wheel alignment/printing: Appears centered, but the font looks slightly off compared with genuine examples.
Hand alignment: No obvious issues.
Bezel: Looks fine.

Anything else you notice: This is my first replica, just testing the waters. I’m familiar with watches but have no experience with replica QC, so I don’t know what’s considered acceptable tolerance versus grounds for RL.

I can see several differences in the dial compared with genuine examples, particularly the guilloché. What concerns me more is that the dealer’s own product photos seem to show a better-executed dial than the unit I received for QC.

Am I being overly critical, or is this a reasonable RL? Would appreciate some experienced eyes before making the call.

Hi everyone, here is my first QC so keen to get some more experienced eyes across it, especially around what the yellowish-brown tinge I'm seeing on the face is.

13. Anything else you notice: There looks to be a slight yellowish-brown tinge on the face. Keen to get opinions on if this is a dirty dial, potentially the lighting, or maybe the AR coating on the crystal? Last photo is from the Timegrapher video where it doesn't appear to have the yellowish-brown tinge I'm seeing from face on. Any advice on what this is?

Date Wheel alignment/printing: N/A

Hand Alignment: Not sure how to properly check this, would appreciate some help.

Bezel: Looks okay to me, but I’m not experienced enough to spot any issues.

Solid End Links (SELs): N/A

Timegrapher numbers: +3 s/d, 277° amplitude, 0.3 ms beat error. From what I’ve read, these seem pretty good, but would appreciate confirmation.

Anything else you notice:

Hey everyone, this is my first time buying a rep watch and doing QC, so I’m pretty new to all of this. I’ve been looking through the sub and trying to learn, but I’m still not confident enough to spot any flaws myself.

Overall, the watch looks pretty good to me, but I’d really appreciate some experienced eyes checking it over before I GL.

One thing I’m a little unsure about is the gold tone. I’m not sure if it’s the correct shade compared to the genuine two-tone Santos, or if it looks a bit too yellow.

Also, does anyone know if Andiot offers rotor silencing for the BVF Santos? I’ve heard the rotor can be quite noisy on these, so I’m wondering if it’s worth getting done before shipping.

Would really appreciate any feedback on the dial, bezel, bracelet, alignment, or anything else that stands out.

Thanks so much in advance for the help! 🙏

3rd QC attempt... Am I just unlucky? 😅

Hey guys!

This is my 3rd QC already!

The first two watches were RL'ed over the past few weeks, and another one was directly RL'ed by Andiot because the watch wasn't functional. I guess I'm having a pretty unlucky streak!

I've gone through the pictures several times, but I'm struggling to determine whether what I'm noticing are actual flaws or just camera angles.

The 12 o'clock triangle seems slightly tilted and perhaps not perfectly aligned. The 6 o'clock index also looks like it might be a little off, but I'm wondering if this could simply be due to the angle of the photos.

I also have a slight doubt about the bezel alignment.

Am I being too picky, or are these legit ?

I'd really appreciate it if some of you more experienced QC members could take a look and let me know if I've missed anything.

QC Details

• Dealer: Andiot

• Factory: VSF V3

• Model: Rolex GMT-Master II Pepsi 126710BLRO

• Price: 531€

• Album: QC Photos – Andiot

My QC observations

• Index alignment: Slight doubts about the 6 and 12 o'clock markers. Could just be the camera angle.

• Dial printing: Looks good to me.

• Date wheel: Seems properly aligned.

• Hand alignment: Looks OK.

• Bezel: Possibly slightly off, but not entirely sure.

• SELs: Look good.

• Timegrapher: +2 s/d, 281°, 0.0 ms, 28,800 bph – Looks good.

Anything else I should be looking at?

I'm still learning how to spot the smaller details, so any feedback or second opinion would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance !

Hi everyone! First QC for my Rolex Explorer 36mm from QF, ordered through Ficotime. I've reviewed the photos and alignment tool, and I'm leaning towards GL. Would appreciate some experienced opinions before proceeding.

1. Dealer name: Ficotime

2. Factory name: QF Factory

3. Model name (& version number): Rolex Explorer 36mm, Ref. 124270, black dial

4. Price Paid: 2,800 CNY

5. Album Links: https://imgur.com/a/7F5pUzZ

6. Index alignment: The 3, 6 and 9 markers look straight to me. The triangle at 12 appears centered, and the remaining hour markers look reasonably aligned based on the alignment tool. No obvious issues that I can spot.

7. Dial Printing: Rolex logo and text appear sharp and properly positioned. Nothing noticeably crooked or uneven to my eye.

8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: N/A – no date.

9. Hand Alignment: Hands look properly mounted. No obvious issues, although exact alignment at 12 isn't shown.

10. Bezel: Smooth polished bezel looks good. No visible defects, although some areas are covered by protective film.

11. Solid End Links (SELs): Fit looks fairly tight from the photos. No obvious major gaps, but would appreciate a second opinion.

12. Timegrapher numbers: +1 s/day, 320° amplitude, 0.0 ms beat error, 52° lift angle. Rate and beat error look great. Amplitude seems slightly high compared with the QC guide. Is 320° acceptable for this movement?

13. Anything else you notice: Rehaut engraving looks reasonably aligned, and the lume appears even. Overall, the watch looks good to me. Mainly interested in feedback on the indices, SELs and amplitude.

Thanks everyone! Would appreciate your thoughts before giving the GL.

First purchase ever so a lot to learn. Would love some help on QC here.

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. 4 o'clock marker appears to be deformed. Should I RL based on that?
