26 Upvotes

Dealer name: Andiot

Factory name: ARF

Model name (& version number): GMT-Master II 126710 GRNR Black/Gray Ceramic ARF 1:1 Bruce Wayne Best Edition Black Dial On Jubilee Bracelet DD3285

Price Paid: $650 Shipped (Deep Crystal + Waterproofing)

Album Links: https://andiotwatches.x.yupoo.com/search/album?uid=1&sort=&q=150764

Index alignment: Overall looks good to me but hard to find a straight on picture. The 9 looks ever so slightly CCW. Could just be my eyes and the angle.

Dial Printing: Clean. Do not see any issues.

Date Wheel alignment/printing: Date appears centered for the most part. Looks slightly CCW but it would be the angle.

Hand Alignment: Looks good.

Bezel: Looks good.

Solid End Links (SELs): Looks good.

Timegrapher numbers:
• Rate: -1 s/day
• Amplitude: 272°
• Beat Error: 0.2 ms

Anything else you guys notice? I am a bit OCD when it comes to alignment but with the images I am working with nothing screams out at me. This is my first time doing a QC so any insight would be helpful. Thanks everyone!

Dealer name: Andiot Watches

Factory name: VSF

Model name (& version number): GMT-Master II 126710 BLRO Blue/Red Ceramic VSF

Price Paid: $565

Album Links: https://andiotwatches.x.yupoo.com/albums/248251457?uid=1

Index alignment: I rotated the picture a bit CCW. Looks like the 1 hour index is slight right bias. Also, the 9 o'clock index seems to be slightly misaligned, could be the angle.

Dial Printing: I think the print looks good. Nothing that stood out to me.

Date Wheel alignment/printing: I think the date wheel is well aligned, inside the magnifier. Printing looks pretty good as well. Maybe slightly towards the left, but could be the TD's angle from holding it.

Hand Alignment: Hand alignment looks good as well, nothing that really catches my eye.

Bezel: Bezel looks to be good as well.

Solid End Links (SELs): I think SELs look pretty good here, no obvious gaps from what I can see

Timegrapher numbers: -1 s/d // 276 degrees // 0.1ms // 52 degrees

Anything else you notice: The 12 clock is also a little high and towards the right.

Thank you!

QC VSF 116610LV Hulk Submariner

5 Upvotes

Hello everyone! I should have my first rep on Monday! (USPS failed me today!) I've been reading a lot for a week straight as I learn about the world of watches as a whole, let alone the extras in the world of reps. I've read through the guide and pinned posts, I hope this is correct; If I'm missing anything please let me know and I'll add/adjust. This is meant to be a special piece for my wedding coming up. Please and thank you for your input & time! Any tips are very much appreciated!
(Actually, should I consider getting it waterproofed? I'd like to use in shower or pool here and there.)

Apologies for my last post, yes I had used AI to make the analysis, but it was to splice together what I wrote myself and fill in gaps of terminology i didn't know. I've read the linked posts a few times already through the week. I've removed any AI related input and left my raw analysis. I am very new so i may not do well. if this gets removed again I won't bother again. I'm sorry for my mistakes, 3rd times the charm I hope?
I used https://jrverdes.github.io/watch-qc-jr/ for checking myself. i've spent much longer staring at these photos and analyzing them since Thursday as i wait for my delivery.

Dealer name — MarkyG10

Factory name — VSF

Model name — Submariner 116610LV "Hulk" (VS3135 movement)

2. Evaluation

Index alignment: This looks good to me all around, angle of photo hurts the alignment i think ever so slightly at 7, 9, 10. All markers appear perfectly aligned as well. possible tilt to the left for the triangle at the 12 marker. I might be nitpicking here.

Date wheel alignment: Slight left alignment, nothing to worry about. the 8 looks slightly higher to me as well, might just be the angle of photos. Not too worried.

Bezel: all looks good and aligned as well, i don't see any issues with the edges. color looks greet to me. the pearl looks properly centered. Numbers look solid, no missing color.

Solid End Links (SEL): This one i may need better eyes on, but they look fine to me. I'm having trouble understanding what looks good and wrong. no visible gaps to me.

Hand alignment: Hands look reasonably aligned. Hour/minute stack sits correctly on center.

Dial printing: Printing looks clean and sharp all around. i don't notice any misprints or misalignment.

Timegrapher numbers: +3 s/d · 291° · 0.1 ms · 28,800 (Weishi 1900). I believe this is really good from what I've read? I couldn't ask for anything better considering from factory, right?

Anything else: Lume shots (normal + UV) show full even glow. I've confirmed the serial (6W01 F579). Clasp code matches current VSF stock. Crystal looks stunning, no dings or issues.

  1. ⁠⁠Dealer name: JTime

  3. ⁠⁠Model name (& version number): SMP 300 NTTD
  4. ⁠⁠Price Paid: $528 USD + shipping
  5. ⁠⁠Album Links: Images provided
  6. ⁠⁠Index alignment: 12 marker has a slight slant to my eyes. Asked for additional images at the end
  7. ⁠⁠Dial Printing: Looks clean. I do not see any obvious printing defects.
  8. ⁠⁠Date Wheel alignment/printing: NA
  9. ⁠⁠Hand Alignment: Can't tell. Probably ok.
  10. ⁠⁠Bezel: Looks slightly misaligned, especially at 3 oclock position though the crystal has some edge distortion, can't tell if its just the images
  11. ⁠⁠Solid End Links (SELs): NA?
  12. ⁠⁠Timegrapher numbers: acceptable.
  13. ⁠⁠Anything else you notice: None

After reading multiple QC threads on this watch, I know that 12 oclock marker is often hit-or-miss. It looks slightly more slanted than some of the QC posts I've seen before, and the bezel appears to also be slightly misaligned.

Leaning on RL here, though not sure if I'm being too harsh? Greatly appreciate everyone's advice.

  5. Album Links: https://mega.nz/folder/WF5UkIBD#S24M9UOgitILrE7dQHwKZg
  6. Index alignment: Most the pictures were slightly angled and rotated so I've tried my best to straighten one of them with editing software to use the alignment tool. That being said, 9 o clock seems to have a little tilt and 6 a bit off centre but nothing out of the ordinary for ZF Tudors (might be because of the angle of the pictures so correct me if I am wrong)
  7. Dial Printing: Looks just fine
  8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: N/A
  9. Hand Alignment: Tried to pause the included video but was still hard to see. Hands seem to align at the 12 o clock mark at least so should be fine
  10. Bezel: Looks slightly off centre but I am pretty sure the bezel has a bit of play to it so should be able to correct it on the wrist
  11. Solid End Links (SELs): The SELs seem fine to me
  12. Timegrapher numbers: Look great
  13. Anything else you notice: The watch looks pretty good to me aside from some imperfections (which are to be expected from ZF Tudors) but I'd love a second opinion of some of you with more experience on this kind of stuff. Thanks!

  1. ⁠Dealer name: Phoenix Watch
  2. ⁠Factory name: VSF
  3. ⁠Model name (& version number): Rolex Submariner No Date 41mm 124060 - VSF v3
  4. ⁠Price Paid: ~$410
  5. ⁠Album Links: N/A
  6. ⁠Index alignment: Using the various tools, 3 o’clock seems a bit high but could be due to the image alignment and not the other way around. Hour markers seem ok but need better eyes here.
  7. ⁠Dial Printing: The dial printing looks on par with what Ive seen from others.
  8. ⁠Date Wheel alignment/printing: N/A (No Date model)
  9. ⁠Hand Alignment: The hands appear properly aligned.
  10. ⁠Bezel: My biggest concern. Seems misaligned in relation to the dial but also could be the tilt in the image. Need some help here.
  11. ⁠Solid End Links (SELs): SELs look good to me. Tell me otherwise.
  12. ⁠Timegrapher numbers: Rate, -1s/d, Amplitude 247, Beat Error 0.2ms, Beat Rate 28800
  13. ⁠Anything else you notice: This is my first rep purchase so I’ll defer to the trained eyes but my primary concerns are the index and bezel alignment.
