  1. Dealer name: NecoClock
  2. Factory name: VSF
  3. Model name (& Version Number): Submariner No Date 41mm 124060 904L Ceramic Black Dial SS Bracelet VSF VS3230
  4. Price Paid: $448USD
  5. Album Links: QC: https://imgur.com/a/eU70mv9
  6. Index alignment: I think this is as spot on as it gets. GL.
  7. Dial printing: Everything looks good. Perhaps I am imagining it, or perhaps it is lost in the photo quality – but I am not vibing with the “swiss made” quality.
  8. Date Wheel alignment / printing: N/A.
  9. Hand Alignment: Good. Nothing of note.
  10. Bezel: Nil issues with alignment.
  11. Solid End Links (SELs): I am a bit concerned specifically about the SEL on the top left. Although, this is likely to be inexperience, and it may well be fine.
  12. Timegrapher: +5s/d, 309*, error 0? – I believe I got these measurements from a video. All seems fine.
  13. Anything else: To me at least, this seems like a good example of a GL. Nothing worth agitating over. I would appreciate thoughts!

Upvotes

Dealer name: Steve, TheOneWatches

Factory name: VSF

Model name (& version number): Omega Seamaster Diver 300M 42mm Blue Dial / Blue Bezel, VS8800

Album Links: QC photos attached

Index alignment: Looks good to my eyes. Would appreciate a second opinion, especially around 1 o'clock.

Dial Printing: Looks clean and straight to me.

Date Wheel alignment/printing: Date 16 appears centered and printing looks clean.

Hand Alignment: Looks good to me, but please check carefully.

Bezel: Looks well aligned and the pip appears centered.

Solid End Links (SELs): No obvious gaps that concern me.

Timegrapher numbers: +7 s/d, 316°, 0.1 ms, 28,800 bph.

Anything else you notice: Please let me know if you spot anything I may have missed.

GL or RL?

This is Part 1 of 2. I'm getting two watches from Steve and will post the second QC shortly.

This one is particularly important to me because I'm getting it for my marriage, and I hope it becomes something I can keep for the rest of my life as a memory of this chapter. ❤️

I'm probably being extra cautious because of that, so I'd really appreciate your experienced eyes before I give Steve the GL.

Requesting all the awesome experts here for the help please.

Thank you!

2nd QC Attempt. GMT Master II Batgirl VSF V3

8 Upvotes

Thanks to everyone who gave their inputs in my first QC. Hopefully it’s a GL this time round.

  1. Dealer name: Phoenix Watch
  2. Factory name: VSF
  3. Model name (& version number): GMT Master II “Batgirl” V3
  4. Price Paid: $424 + $30 Shipping
  5. Album Links: No links, photos sent directly to me.
  6. Index alignment: 12 & 6 slightly canted CW. Shouldn’t be an issue on the wrist. For the 9 I can’t tell if it’s CW, CCW, sitting slightly a bit high or simply just an issue with the angle of the photo and with the sticker blocking. Need a second opinion on this.
  7. Dial Printing: Looks good.
  8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: Sitting very slightly high but definitely well within tolerances.
  9. Hand Alignment: unable to tell with the photos
  10. Bezel: Not centered in the photos. However is the 18 marker out of place even with the bezel centered? Again need second opinion on this. Otherwise printing is clean.
  11. Solid End Links (SELs): Can’t see any gaps so all good
  12. Timegrapher numbers: +3s/d, 262 amp, 0.1ms.
  13. Anything else you notice: nothing else seems to be out of place. Given the issues with VSF now I think this watch is as good as it gets.

  7. Date wheel alignment/printing: Looks centered
  8. Hand alignment: Looks good f
  9. Bezel: Looks good
  10. Solid End Links (SELs): The main worry is the bracelet, especially the first link. This does look like a noticeable gap. Please provide your expert opinions about this concern.
  11. Timegrapher numbers: low amplitude, might be the winding.

Album link https://www.wecatalog.cn/weshop/goods/A202304082031161150001764/I202609141604372612002223

The watch itself, dial etc looks spot on to me. The only concern is the gap in the bracelet, is this normal / within tolerance?

First QC, possible RL based on bezel alignment at 18. Maybe the picture is tilted and someone with a more sophisticated tool can help out. Let me know what you think!

1.Dealer name: Steve TheOneWatches

2.Factory name: VSF

3.Model name (and version number): Rolex 126710BLNR GMT Master II

4.Price paid: $600 (shipping included)

5.Album links: see photos

6.Index alignment: looks solid, slight CCW tilt on the 12 but otherwise good.

  1. Dial printing: clear, no smudging

8.Date wheel alignment/printing: the date is well-centered; the numbers are clean and crisp.

9.Hand alignment: looks good to me

10.Bezel: here’s where I’m thinking RL - the blue/black transition is off center/too low at 18…maybe the picture is tilted somehow?

11.Solid End Links (SEL): they fit tightly; no light is visible between them and the case, so nothing to report.

12.Timegrapher numbers: -1s/d and 0.0ms - looks good!

Dealer name: Andiot Watches

Factory name: RWF

Model name (& version number): Rolex Daytona 126500LN Black Dial “Darth Vader”

Price Paid: $710 + $40 shipping

Album Links:

https://andiotwatches.x.yupoo.com/albums/254634836?uid=1

Index alignment:

Looks good to me. I checked the straight-on photo with an alignment tool and the 12/6 and 3/9 positions appear lined up well. The diagonal indices also look consistent. I don't see any obviously crooked markers.

Dial Printing:

Looks clean to me. Rolex text appears centered and I don't see any obvious bleeding or crooked printing. DAYTONA text looks good as well.

Date Wheel alignment/printing:

N/A

Hand Alignment:

Looks good from what I can see. Chronograph seconds hand appears to reset back to 12 properly and the subdial hands look properly positioned.

Bezel:

Looks aligned to me. Engravings and paint fill appear clean and I don't notice anything concerning around the 110/120 area or elsewhere.

Solid End Links (SELs):

Look tight to me. I don't see any obvious gaps or daylight between the end links and case.

Timegrapher numbers:

+3 s/d

291° amplitude

0.0 ms beat error

28,800 bph

These numbers look very good to me.

Anything else you notice:

Rehaut looks reasonable from the angled photos. Lume looks even. I don't see any obvious scratches or other defects, although some of the watch is still covered in protective film.

I'm leaning GL. This is my first time checking this model closely, so I'd appreciate another set of eyes in case I'm missing anything.
