Hi mate,

Posting QC pics should be limited to confirming something wrong you think you saw on the watch. If the watch looks fine according to you, there is no reason to post such pics.

Once you receive the watch, don't hesitate to share your own pics, these would be much appreciated. :)

Hi thanks for the response, I just don;t understand the machine readings - do they mean anything? 8s? is that good or bad.

Isn't 341° amplitude a bit too strong ? :)

Thanks guys. Marvelous is looking into this watch. I was okay with it after reading the comments but he offered that he'll get his watchsmith to take a look at it. What does 341 mean.

AMPLITUDE
The measure of the amount of rotation in the swing of the balance wheel, in either direction, usually expressed in degrees. In a running watch, the balance wheel swings or rotates clockwise and counterclockwise. Each swing in either direction is called a “beat”. Amplitude is the number of degrees of rotation of the beat. Amplitude is higher, typically in the range of about 270 to 315 degrees, when a watch is lying flat or in the “dial up” or “dial down” position. Amplitude usually falls when the watch is in a vertical position, primarily due to increased friction. Amplitude can also fall as the watch winds down and the mainspring delivers less power. Amplitude that is too high or too low, or that changes too much in different positions, can indicate a problem with the movement.

MT is going to be shipping the watch soon. He said " the watchsmith said that amplitude is still ok compared with the accuracy and beat errow" - I am glad. I was very nervous (this being my first replica purchase)

Mate, I think the comment about amplitude was ironic. :)
