Folks,   People are once again losing the plot when it comes to the purpose of QC pics. We've tackled the subject before with THIS thread, but some members either don't understand or are refusing to understand what QC pics are for.   Given that some of our dealers already request their buyers not to post QC pics, and also given that if this nonsense continues we may well find that dealers will stop providing pics prior to shipping, we have decided to disallow the posting of further QC pics on the forum until you have accepted them.
Once accepted you are authorized to post them on the forum in order to share your newly made order or to illustrate a topic. You are not authorized to post them to get opinions from the members, even if you already accepted them. We've been trying to avoid taking this measure for the last year or more, but the situation is getting worse and we feel that there is no longer any alternative. Posts/threads infringing QC pics rule may be deleted or wastelanded without warning or the user may get a warning or worse. The original QC pic rule still applies to the user @TheGingerFerret who is not authorized to post any QC pics at all, regardless of the status of his order. This rule will be strictly enforced.   Remember: QC pics are for your OWN use to ensure that the watch is what you ordered and is in good order. That is all. Any research into the accuracy of the watch compared to the gen should be done before ordering.
