Hey Guys,

is this only dirt or are this scratches and faults? Especially the circles, that are marked with arrows. The circle with the arrow that shows to the bezel.. it looks a bit like a doub of paint? Don't how to explain it really.. And the arrow that shows to the glas.. it look's like a small hair or dust under the glas.

And the 6 Clock Indices looks crooked or is this only the angle?

Now please put the humor aside guys, so it was correct to reject the watch?

Did they accent your rejection? I once rejected the QC pictures and they said I was being to picky and that they can't be perfect...

No.. not a problem. I‘ve received the QC before the payment, because the Black Bay was UK Stock.

Well all the little marks and scratches you have circled are just dust and hairs on exterior of watch . Which I'm sure could be wiped off if you asked the dealer . The crystal on the BB stands proud and is slightly bowed which distorts the outer markers when snaps are taken in macro especially when the watch is angled. In the last picture the six marker looks fine to me .
I suspect you will be rejecting a lot of watches perhaps best to go gen .

That was the first time. ;)

And it's not real rejecting, because it was on stock in the UK - So any other guy will order the watch now.
If the watch was produced directly from the factory for me by ordering for example from Ryan - I wouldn't reject it, because of the expenditure for the TD.

And I don't think this one is only dust or dirt above the glas or the bezel..

Produced ' DIRECTLY FOR YOU IN THE FACTORY ' :rofl: . If it's UK stock and therefore the dealer I suspect his QC is usually spot on , his photography not so .You seem to have it all under control , surprised you needed to post this thread . Anyway good luck TTFN .

You know what I mean with that, It‘s a difference if it‘s UK Stock or the TD pick up the watch for me from the factory & I reject it then.

But thanks for the information, I will ask the TD if he can swipe the „dirt“ off and send me another picture - if the watch is still available.

If not avaible, then my bad luck.
