hi guys,
just received my QC pics today and I am not sure what to make of it...
1. the small line between the bezel and the rehault: looks like if it was a clear gap in between or is it only reflections of the minute markers across? :D
Looks like your rehaut is delaminated. Known issue, p0pperini can tell you more about it.

Uh-oh... another case of Detached Rehaut. All too common. Looks like it's time for someone to whip their tool out and give it a seeing to.

Haha!!! If anyone remembers this... it was awesome! Classic moment. I think everyone chimed in to see how long we could keep it going.

It was great how only one of the spring bars was the rehaut tool. What happened to that lovely young chap?

2. the lume pip on the bezel is not centered, tilt to the right.
3. the engravings in the clasp look very poor, the O of Rolex and the N of Geneva but also the curved lines and the gap between 7 and GJ....

what I really love is the crisp and clear writing of the dates, the DW seems to be centered and the rehault looks great.
so if the "gap" between bezel and rehault is only refelctions, I would only insist on changing the clasp - is this possible?

Thanks for advice

Have to admit I was too stupid regarding my point 1... sorry for that!
but in the end I GL another watch and RL this one because of the crooked 9 marker and the poor engravings in the clasp. I know that there are stickers on it however the engravings were poor imo and on the other one it is very well made despite the stickers... now I am waiting for delivery and full of anticipation :)

The watch that you RL was really good, other than the crooked marker.
We have to be careful when we RL a watch because we can get offered another that has that issue fixed and, in turn, presents a different problem.
the rehaut was spot on on the watch that you RLd. The crooked marker is a fixable issue, the rehaut is not.
If the second watch was ok then you lucked out.
me joy it.

sure what else should I have done with the crooked 9 marker? I am not going to throw in a gen dial

Bro, you didn't even notice the 9 marker until someone brought it up. In my eyes, it was perfectly fine anyway. But someone always has to feel good about taking those pixels apart, even if it's just perspective/lighting related.

anyway, if I was about to accept such obvious flaws (even if I did not realized it in the first run) I would have ordered a 2-300 bucks rep. why then ordering the best ootb VSF sub?

I understand that the serial number for vsf should start with S19.
Just checked my QC pic and could make out a S18... Is that possible?

Fuyuki-shi, 🇯🇵
The serial I RL was 2 QC pictures starting from S29, and the precision of the bracelet pinhole at the same point was bad.
I understand that QC pictures is a service.
So basically I understand that I should not share QC pictures and dealers of negative information,
but I decided to share this information because there is a possibility that these are problems due to lots.
