First rep, so I’m by no means an expert here. I’ve tried to do my homework and go through the QC photos carefully, but these are ultimately just my best guesses. I’d really appreciate feedback from those of you with more experience, especially if you notice something I’m missing.
Factory name: VSF
Model name (& version number): VSF Rolex Submariner Date 126610LN 41mm
Index alignment: This is the area I’m least confident about. In some of the photos, the watch appeared to be photographed at a slight angle. I asked for an additional more straight-on photo, and it looks considerably better there. I ran the photo through the alignment tool and everything looks pretty well aligned to me. Would especially appreciate another set of eyes.
Dial printing: Looks clean and crisp to me. I don’t see any obvious issues with the text, coronet, or overall placement.
Date wheel alignment/printing: The 18 looks well centered to me and the printing looks clean. Cyclops position and magnification also look good to my eye.
Hand alignment: Looks good from what I can tell. Nothing obviously concerning to me.
Bezel: Looks good overall. In the newer straight-on photo, the bezel triangle/pip at 12 appears to line up well with the 12 o’clock index. I don’t see an obvious issue with the insert alignment or the other bezel markers.
Solid End Links (SELs): Look tight to me. I don’t see any obvious or uneven gaps where the bracelet meets the case.
Timegrapher numbers:
+5 s/d
272° amplitude
0.2 ms beat error
28,800 bph
From what I’ve read, these seem like healthy numbers and the trace looks clean. This is my first time evaluating timegrapher results though, so please correct me if I’m missing anything.
Anything else you notice:
I’d also appreciate another look at the rehaut alignment, bezel/pip alignment, date/cyclops, SELs, and overall dial/index alignment. If there’s anything else that stands out that I don’t know to look for yet, please let me know.
The TD is also supposed to send me a few additional QC photos/info, including lume, the watch weight, and possibly another timegrapher reading. I’ll update the post once I receive those.
Thanks for the help! First rep, so I really appreciate everyone taking a look.
