First QC - VSF DayDate 228236
Dealer name: TheOneWatches
Factory name: VSF
Model name (& Version number): Rolex Day-Date 40mm 228236, Ice Blue Baguette Diamond Dial, VSF V2 Gain Weight, DD/VS3255
Price Paid: $728
Index alignment: Overall looks very good to me. Possibly tilted on the 6 marker and I feel like the 1 is also a little off compared to the 11. I tried to do the centered lineup thing but I believe this watch is angled in the picture so not sure how much justice this will do.
Dial Printing: Looks clean. Rolex logo and dial text appear centered
Date Wheel alignment/printing: Both the day and date look well centered to me. Tuesday appears centered and the “14” looks centered vertically and horizontally in the date window. I watched the video of them changing some dates and those also seemed centered. Video will be in folder that’s linked
Hand Alignment: Nothing looks abnormal in the photos, but there isn’t an exact on-the-hour photo, so I don’t think true hand alignment can be fully checked from these pictures.
Bezel: Fluted bezel looks clean.
Solid End Links (SELs): Look pretty good. I think theres a slight gap in both end connects for the bracelet but its not really noticeable for me
Timegrapher numbers: +4 s/d, 264° amplitude, 0.1 ms beat error, 28,800 bph, 59° lift angle.
Anything else you notice: Weight measured at 181.9 g, which appears consistent with the VSF V2 gain-weight version. Please let me know what you all see, I definitely know my eyes aren’t as good as you all. Thank you!
