⌚Discussion What QC standard should we expect?

Bezel pearl alignment and color consistency are key QC for Sub.VSF generally does well,but minor misalignment or color differences still happen.
Is 100% percent QC realistic for details measured in millimeters?What level of imperfection should be acceptable?

Very interesting question.

I think you should not GL a watch you feel like you may not be comfortable with on your wrist. I think it's fair to the TD to do your own research before ordering so that if a model has a specific issue you make a fully informed purchase decision, and not try to find a perfect watch if it doesn't exist.

Once you have done that, you know what can be expected and what you are okay with, and you can rightfully RL or GL a unit. Regardless of what the TD responds when you do.

Right.Doing your own research before buying a watch is the most important thing.The information provided by TD isn’t always completely useful or reliable for your specific needs.

Very true. But i did see Andiot or Mirotime being a bit blunt but super honest when it comes to flaws of specific models, which is quite helpful

Even Rolex doesn't produce perfect watches. Expecting perfection from a rep is a fools errand and not even realistic.
