r/RepTimeQC

Hey all, the picture came slightly skewed but I think I've fixed it. I'm not sure if I'm being picky or if there are lots of issues, particularly with the bezel alignments and maybe the 12 and 6 indexes. The bezel is my real concern from a rookie perspective..

1. Dealer name: Trusty
2. Factory name: VSF
3. Model name (& version number): OMG0895B - Seamaster 300m 2018 SS/SS White VSF V4 VS8800
4. Price Paid: $500
5. Album Links:
6. Index alignment: 12 and 6 look a bit off?
7. Dial Printing: Fine
8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: Fine
9. Hand Alignment: No idea
10. Bezel: Might just need a slight twist, but the gaps to the index look uneven across numbers. I.e. 10 and 11 are dead on, but everything else is off
11. Solid End Links (SELs): Fine
12. Timegrapher numbers: Too good to be true?
13. Anything else you notice: I know the "seamaster" red is always off, but this looks crazy bright, no?

Dealer name: MiroTime - great Service so far!

Factory name: ZF

Model name (& version number): Tudor Black Bay 58 GMT Coke, 39mm, 5-link bracelet, A2836 movement

Price Paid: $338 + Shipping

Method of Payment: Paid via Wise

Album Links: Album Link , Video Link

Index alignment: Looks acceptable to my eye. The 12 o'clock marker has a small CW rotation and the 9 o'clock marker seems to have the tiniest CCW rotation. Other than that I am happy.

Dial Printing: Everything looks clean and sharp I would say. Only the "Swiss Made" seems to be cut off, but that is something I expected to happen with this model, especially because of the domed crystal.

Date Wheel alignment/printing: I think the dates are centered "enough", even though all the dates one can see on the pictures are not perfectly centered. Not RL worthy for me.

Hand Alignment: No issue here.

Bezel: Bezel looks very well aligned. All the numbers are sharp in correct position.

Solid End Links (SELs): I am not so sure about the upper right corner SEL. There seems to be kind of a gap, could also be just a shadow. Not quite sure.

Timegrapher numbers: 0 s/d, 261 amplitude, 0.1 ms beat error. The LA is set to 55°, which I think is too high for that movement? Especially with the amplitude being at 261, which is already kind of low I highly appreciate any input regarding the numbers.

Anything else you notice: My main concerns are the SELs and the timegrapher numbers. The dates not being perfectly centered not so much. Right now I tend to GL that watch but as this is my first ZF Tudor Rep I highly appreciate your input.

7.Dial Printing: color looks good to me

8.Date Wheel alignment/printing: Looks good

9.Hand Alignment: seems fine as best as I can tell

10.Bezel: I see lines through the letter in engraving, are these just a reflection?

11.Solid End Links (SELs): It looks acceptable

12.Timegrapher numbers: -3s/d, 278*, 0.ms, 59*

13.Anything else you notice: first rep, I’m a newbie . Any feedback would be much appreciated. Getting this and green ombré dial as well.

11. Solid End Links (SELs): looks ok
12. Timegrapher numbers: within range
13. Anything else you notice: it seems like a good watch. I will GL

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

I’m leaning towards a GL, sometimes there is always a trade off with reps and this is overall looking pretty solid, what do you think?

I already own a VSF Green Dial 36mm OP but my curiosity has got me so I would like to add a Cleen Plus for comparison.

Dealer name: Andiot

2 Factory name: Clean Plus

3 Model name (& version number): Oyster Perpetual 126000 36mm Clean Plus 1:1 Best Edition 904L Steel Green Dial DD3230 WITH MODS - Deep Crystal and Water Resistance

4 Price Paid: 588 USD with Mods

5 Album Links: https://andiotwatches.x.yupoo.com/albums/244748091?uid=1

6 Index alignment: I like what I see bar the indices at 6 and 9, I’m aware the pictures sent are not 100% face on and Andiots lighting source has a strong presence from the right side which can further throw things off.

7 Dial Printing: Clean and crisp. No obvious printing flaw visible.

8 Date Wheel alignment/printing: N/A

9 Hand Alignment: Hands appear straight and properly aligned.

10 Bezel: Bezel looks good.

11 Solid End Links (SELs): They seem tight and aligned (I have found the bottom right always looks a little off with Andiot due to he’s lighting source)

12 Timegrapher numbers: Rate -1 s/d, Amplitude 271°, Beat Error 0.2 ms

13 Anything else you notice: It is mainly the 6 and 9 markers for me.

Thanks

7.        Dial Printing:  The clockwise misalignment.

8.        Date Wheel alignment/printing: Looks good, only the cyclope seems a little bit counter-clockwise. Please correct me on this one. And 19 looks a little upper than it should be.

P.S. I actually tilted the picture a little and it seems better. But what about cyclops?

Hello everyone,

I'd really appreciate a second opinion on this QC. Overall I'm leaning towards a GL, but there are a couple of small details I'd like some experienced eyes on before making my final decision.

1. Dealer name: Necoclock

2. Factory name: VSF

3. Model name (& version number): Omega Aqua Terra 150M 41mm Green Dial (8900)

4. Price Paid: $348 + $35 shipping = $383 USD

5. Album Links: https://mega.nz/folder/i8IQiSLC#2_Ln3VtqwNIvD5ayxcnfZQ

6. Index alignment: Overall the indices look well aligned to me. Visually everything looks straight.

7. Dial Printing: The dial printing looks clean and sharp. No obvious defects that I can see.

8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: Overall it looks good, although the date appears ever so slightly left-biased in a few photos. It could simply be the camera angle, so I'd appreciate another opinion.

9. Hand Alignment: Looks good to me. No issues visible in the video.

10. Bezel: Looks clean with no visible scratches or finishing issues.

11. Solid End Links (SELs): N/A

12. Timegrapher numbers:
    - Rate: 0 s/d
    - Amplitude: 244°
    - Beat Error: 0.0 ms

13. Anything else you notice: Overall I'm leaning GL, but I'd really appreciate another opinion. The only thing I'm still unsure about is the applied Omega logo. On some photos it looks perfectly fine, while on others it appears slightly different. It might simply be the lighting, reflections or camera angle, but I'd appreciate your thoughts on the logo, the date alignment, and anything else I may have missed.

Thanks in advance for taking the time to help. I really appreciate your input!

4. Price Paid: $478 included shipping.
5. Album Links: Photos in post. Videos: https://imgur.com/a/sscZkOa
6. Index alignment: Overall the markers look pretty good, most are straight and the logo, cyclops and triangle at 3,9,12 looks fine.
7. Dial Printing: Clear and seem good.
8. Hand alignment: Hands are decently aligned, meeting okay at 12.
9. Date wheel alignment: NA.
10. Bezel: Engravings seem okay and filling looks kind of even on most numbers.
11. Solid End Links (SEL): Can't notice anything specially odd.
12. Timegrapher numbers:  Acceptable Rate: 0s; Acceptable Amplitude: 262; Acceptable Beat Error: 0.1 ms
13. Anything else you notice: Overall I'm thinking this one is a GL. Some minutes mark tilt but it will not be noticeable on the wrist. Pls suggest and much. appreciated.

6. Index alignment: 12 hr slight CW, but doesn’t seem to bother me.
7. Dial Printing: Good
8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: Much better than my previous QC
9. Hand Alignment: Good Alignment can be seen in video in the album link.
10. Bezel: Good
11. Solid End Links (SELs): I think SEL gap on bottom right is way too much and I think I see the spring bar.
12. Timegrapher numbers: -1s / 0.1ms / 260 Amp
13. Anything else you notice: Bracelet clasp has ripped plastic, scratches or a bad weld, asked for more photos. Rehaut is much better and so is date alignment but the SEL gap and bracelet clasp are bothering me(I have highlighted both in last pictures). I‘m open to any suggestions. I have asked for more pics of the SEL and bracelet clasp, but everything else is great.

Album: https://mega.nz/folder/bhQH0DhK#NTbPrlKgAcw3UoNMnreTsw

Dial printing: No issues noted; printing looks clean

Date wheel alignment: not applicable

Bezel: Looks good for the most part. Seems like there is a slight spec under the left marker on the bezel.

SEL: Looks good to me.

6. Date Wheel alignment/printing: NA
7. Hand Alignment: Looks good, no issues
8. Bezel: Looks good
9. Solid End Links (SELs): It does appear to have a tiny gap on this, but it does have the Oysterflex. So I am unsure if this maybe doesnt apply.
10. Timegrapher numbers: +3 to +4 s/d. Beat Error: 0.1ms. Amplitude: 272° LA 59° I have a concern here, everything seems good other than the Lift angle. This watch from everything I can see should run at 52°, but this has been placed at 59°.
11. Anything else you notice: Nothing really jumps out. Seems like a GL other than the Lift Angle on the Timegrapher

5. Album Links: https://mega.nz/folder/PRZzCIZR#JCPYf9uA6rwpMJR8363yPA
6. Index alignment: The indices look well-aligned overall. However the 2 looks slightly rotated counter-clockwise, and maybe 4. Also I think the crown under the 60 at the top is SLIGHTLY offset to the left.
7. Dial Printing: Printing looks to be good to my beginner eyes.
8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: I think the date itself is good, I think the cyclopes is maybe too far to the right though, this could just be how the photos were taken.
9. Hand Alignment: I think the hand alignment itself is fine.
10. Bezel: Looks to be good.
11. Solid End Links (SELs): Looks to be good, no big gap at all.
12. Timegrapher numbers: Good looking, looks centered and same color on both digits.
13. Anything else you notice: I think I am going to RL this due to the poor job on the hands, it looks like there are either chips or dust all over the hour and minute hands, I hope to be wrong and this just be protective film on the face, but I don't think it even has protective film.

Would love any and all feedback! This is my first ever QC so please let me know what I missed :)

6. Index alignment: The indices look well-aligned overall. However the crown looks a bit off to me (not aligned with 60 at the top) and is the only reason im hesitant
7. Dial Printing: Excellent. The sunburst blue dial has nice gradient effect, text is crisp and properly aligned. again, the crown is slightly skewed CCW / misaligned with the center
8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: Date window at 3 o’clock looks clean. The cyclops magnifier is properly positioned and the date font looks sharp
9. Hand Alignment: Hands look properly aligned at multiple positions in the photos. Center seconds, hour, and minute hands track well.
10. Bezel: Fluting appears sharp and even. No obvious softness or misalignment visible in these angles.
11. Solid End Links (SELs): Jubilee bracelet looks solid. Lug-to-link gaps appear tight and consistent from the side and clasp views. Clasp engravings
12. Timegrapher numbers: +\- 2 seconds, 289 amp, 59 lift
13. Anything else you notice:

• Overall presentation is very clean. The blue dial has a strong sunburst that catches light nicely.
• Bracelet finish and brushing look good.
. please let me know if IM CRAZY for the crown tilt. Appreciate all the help - this is my first QC
