QC Pictures of Cartier Tank Solo (NEED HELP)

[lawlepop]

Hey guys so after reviewing the pics Sead sent me I noticed the crown sapphire looked cracked in one of the images and the ring around the sapphire was misaligned lemme know if you agree and if I should ask Sead to send it back. Thanks.

​this is the picture where i see the crack in the sapphire ^^

​
here it appears the steel ring around the sapphire is misaligned or bent. lmk ur thoughts ^^^

I guess you mean this image. You could ask them to take a closer look at it.

 

[hendric]

Yes, the ring also.

Wow, you have super sharp eyes. Yes, you should ask Sead to take a closer look / send additional pictures of the crown

 

[lawlepop]

Update: After asking sead to send more pictures of the crown he emailed me 2 new pictures to which its still hard to tell if there's a huge crack in the crown sapphire or not so i asked if he could send more because I just wanted to make sure nothing was wrong with it and he said "ok but really nothing wrong with it"

What do you guys think should I give him the greenlight?

All i can do is telling about my experience with Sead. But its still your choice.
Ive had some QC Pictures where i marked some things that looked like Scratches or Missalignet things.
Sead told me that the watch is ok and everything is fine.
I decided to trust him and agreed the watch. And i am still happy with this decision, because he was right. The watch is really awesome.
Maybe this will help you.
Anyways good luck !

Remember you are buying a replica watch produced in china in a secluded factory with little or no quality control by people on a super low payscale who more than likely dont give a flying fcuk so do not expect perfection. I can however offer you some comfort in that Sead is very reliable and is a TD of longstanding here.

A short 10 sec closeup video turning the knob would be best.

nothing against you but buy a gen this hobby is nothing for you.

lawlepop I think you and I can be proud to be more in line with Panerai purists. Like Section Moderator ALE7575. Their love and attention to details makes factories and TD's better and better. https://forum.replica-watch.info/fo...ca-search-identification-evaluation-selection

I agree with this but a crack/chip of that magnitude even for a rep feels like a big deal

 

[hendric]

lawlepop I agree with you 100%.

QC video's are nothing new, TD's are already doing this, like Trusty Time: http://www.trustytime02.cc/index.php...ducts_id=18528
People that are just joining the replica scene might not be aware of it.
BTW, Sead/Supermirrors is super helpful, he is one of the few TD's that is sending QC pics before you pay. I've never found another TD that does this.

of that magnitude?? you make it sound like the Mariana Trench. It's only visible on one photo and on another doesn't show. If Sead says it's good then ist good.

I was in exact same position when I thought some markers were misaligned. But he told me they looked fine and it was probably the angle of pics. I decided to trust him and the watch I got was perfect and everything was aligned. Got 4 watches from Sead so far
