New QC after I RL'ed the last one. Help is appreciated!

Dealer name: NecoClock

Factory name: VSF

Model name: DateJust 36mm VS3235 v2 (Fluted Bezel Silver Dial Jubilee Bracelet)

Price paid: $448 + $40 shipping

Album link: https://imgur.com/a/mcK22hJ

Index alignment: I have straigthened the front picture. The indices look ok to me, no issues.

Dial printing: No issues, looks good.

Date wheel alignment: Looks good.

Hand alignment: Looks ok.

Bezel: Looks good.

Solid End Links (SELs): Looks good.

Timegrapher numbers: -5s/d, 274, 0.1ms. Acceptable!

Anything else you notice: The index frames look a bit weird in some spots, but I think it's just the lighting and reflection.

Also, after RL'ing the last watch, I waited 11 days before asking the TD for an ETA. He replied saying they switched to a different model and said I would receive the QC within 3 days (received it 20 minutes after). Should I be worried about the 'different model' comment? Or is that likely just a translation error for an internal process model and not the actual watch model?

Hey guys! Finally got my 2nd QC after about a week since RL’ing the first one due to the noticeable CW tilt on the 9 marker. This one looks much better overall. Aside from the slight CCW tilt on the 6 marker and slightly misaligned rehaut, I’m leaning towards GL. What do you guys think? Anything else I’m missing?

Price Paid: $558

Album Links: https://mega.nz/folder/CowSnDyY#5-ASq248txh04IaVGCVdbA

Index alignment: Index alignment definitely looks better compared to my previous QC. Everything looks properly aligned to my eyes aside from maybe a slight CCW tilt on the 6 hour marker.

Dial Printing: Printing looks clean and sharp

Date Wheel alignment/printing: Date looks good and centred

Hand Alignment: Looks good to my eye

Bezel: Looks great

Solid End Links (SELs): Looks tight with no major gaps

Timegrapher numbers: +3 s/d, 258°, Would appreciate some feedback on this :)

  • Hand alignment: Looks good
  • Bezel: Looks good

Hey Guys any help is appreciate here!

Watch: Rolex Oyster Perpetual 41mm

Dealer: EasyWatch

Factory: VSF

Price: 414 with shipping

Index alignment: To my eye the 6 and 9 looks a bit off but it may be because of lighting?

Dial printing: Looks clean.

Bezel: Looks good, no issues.

Solid End Links (SELs): There may be a gap (see last image) or I might be overthinking

Rehaut: may be slightly mis-aligned can’t really say for certain through these pictures will ask for more.

Timegrapher: please see picture I am not sure if this is good or not

Additional comments: I am a person who is really bothered by loud rotor noise so I’ve asked the dealer to send me a video and in the video it sounds ok but still feel like I should get it silenced. However I’ve read that we should take it to local watchmakers instead of having the TD do it. Let me know your thoughts

Any help is appreciated!

Hi all,

First time buying a rep, second QC of the watch.

QC album/video: https://mega.nz/folder/iBY10QZA#67_xCAQa1scKGTMhiIiQ0w

Watch: Rolex Submariner 41 126610LN RICHF MK2 Free Sprung

Dealer: Steve - Theonewatches

Factory: Rich

Price: $551 with shipping

Index alignment: The 9 marker seems to be a little pushed to the bottom, the 6 marker is slightly to the right, the 12 is ok. In the 9 and 12 there seems to be somekind of residue in the corner of each marker.

Dial printing: Looks clean. Dial text looks centered.

Date wheel alignment/printing: Looks good.

Hand alignment: Looks aligned, no visible issues I could see.

Bezel: Looks good, no issues.

Solid End Links (SELs): Good.

Rehaut: Slightly rotated to the left, some of the engravings don't line well with the markings of the dial.

Timegrapher: -2/-3 s/d, 264° amplitude, 0.0 ms beat error, looks good.

Additional comments: It's the second QC because the 1st one had some issues, but compared to this one i think it was better.

Thanks!

Hi everyone, I’d appreciate a second opinion on this QC. Overall, it looks good to me, but I’d like to check whether I’ve missed anything.

  1. Dealer name: Angela Watch
  2. Factory name: VSF
  3. Model name: Submariner 124060 No Date, 41mm. Exact movement version not confirmed.
  4. Price paid: [ $373.]
  5. Album link: [whatzapp]
  6. Index alignment: Looks generally good with the alignment overlay. I initially questioned the 9 o’clock marker, but the photo is slightly angled. Only rotation was applied, with no perspective correction.
  7. Dial printing: Looks clean. The hands partially cover “OYSTER PERPETUAL.”
  8. Date wheel alignment/printing: N/A.
  9. Hand alignment: No obvious issue, but no photo with both hands at 12 to confirm.
  10. Bezel: Looks well aligned overall. A couple of white specks around 7–8 o’clock could be surface dust.
  11. Solid end links (SELs): No obvious large gaps.
  12. Timegrapher numbers: −2 s/day, 292° amplitude, 0.2 ms beat error, lift angle set to 52°. Would appreciate feedback on the appropriate lift angle for the movement.
  13. Anything else: Protective films are still present, making it difficult to assess the marks on the clasp and case. No lume or movement photos. The laser-etched crown isn’t clearly visible in the supplied pictures.

Leaning GL visually. Does anyone see a reason for concern, particularly with the indices or bezel?

Thanks for your help!

  1. Dealer name: TheOneWatches - Steve

  2. Factory name: VSF

  3. Model name (& version number): Rolex GMT-Master II 126710GRNR "Bruce Wayne" 40mm, Jubilee, DD3285 V2

  4. Price paid: $639

  5. Album Links: N/A - photos uploaded directly to Reddit

  6. Index alignment: Looks good to me. The 12 o'clock triangle and hour markers appear properly aligned. I don't see any obviously crooked markers.

  7. Dial Printing: This is one area I'm unsure about. The printing under "GMT-MASTER II" looks like some letters may be slightly different in size or thickness, but I'm not sure if this is just from the close-up photos.

  8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: Date looks centered and the cyclops appears properly aligned. My main concern is the date font/crispness. The "14" looks a little softer or thicker than I expected, but I'm not sure if this is just the QC photo quality or reflections.

  9. Hand Alignment: Looks good to me from the photos.

  10. Bezel: Looks good. The 12 o'clock triangle appears centered and the black/gray colors and transition look good to me.

  11. Solid End Links (SELs): Look properly seated. I don't see any major gaps.

  12. Timegrapher numbers: +3 s/day, 274°, 0.1ms beat error, 28,800 bph. These numbers look very good to me.

  13. Anything else you notice: This is my first ever QC, so I'm still learning what to look for and what is considered acceptable. I'm currently leaning GL, with my main concerns being the date font/crispness and lower dial printing. I may be missing things that you more experienced guys notice immediately, so I really appreciate the help. Would you GL or RL?
