QC Pics   Many of our dealers provide QC photos before shipping, but it appears that there may be some confusion about exactly what they are for.   QC Pics are for:   Making sure that the watch is the same as originally ordered Making sure that the hands haven’t fallen off Making sure that the dial is printed correctly and fitted the right way up. Making sure that the watch hasn’t had a close encounter with a hammer or belt sander (or a bus, for that matter ).   i.e. they’re purely for ensuring that the watch is what you ordered and is what you would expect of a new watch - hence the term ‘Quality Control’.   QC Pics are NOT for:   Checking whether that rehaut is wokky Evaluating the shape of the CG Evaluating the typeface used on the dial. Working out whether the watch will look ‘gay’ on you. Deciding whether this is really what you want to buy or whether you should have gone for a different version / a different dealer / something else instead.   i.e. QC pics are provided AFTER you have placed the order - if there’s an obvious flaw or the QC pics show differences between this and the watch you ordered, then you’re well within your rights to request a replacement. Otherwise you should simply accept the watch and go ahead with the transaction.   Note also that QC pics are for YOU and YOU ALONE. Please do not attempt to post your QC pics on the forum - due to problems caused by continual misunderstandings about their purpose we have had to disallow the posting of QC pics and they will be removed if posted.
