HOLD · clarify the findings

S004 · Camera geometry corrected. Image rotated approximately 15.0° counterclockwise at the dial centre; perspective and unequal image scaling normalized to a circular dial reference using the printed ticks’ inner tips after broad ink detection. Recentered and resampled to 1900 × 1900 pixels. No correction for crystal refraction or raised bezel/hand geometry. Extended rays are visual dial references only; they do not correct or measure the raised bezel.

RECOMMENDATION

Dial alignment, the 12 o’clock triangle, visible hands and date show no compelling defect. Exterior finish requires confirmation: Obtain cleaned, film-free diffuse-light photographs of the named surfaces at two angles before clearing finish QC.

Dial placement and bar straightness

S001–S004 support generally orderly marker placement. S003 flags a subtle 6 o’clock lean. S001’s verified luminous axis is 1.1° with sensitivity -0.1° to 1.1°; its separate placement offset is -0.1° with sensitivity -0.3° to 0.0°. These geometry-plus-segmentation sensitivity ranges are not confidence intervals.

S001 S002 S003 S004

12 o’clock triangle orientation

S004’s native triangle follows the photograph’s roll; corrected luminous and frame edges show no convincing lean. S002’s native base and apex are balanced, and the corrected amber contour follows the luminous insert rather than its frame. S001’s native and corrected edges show no obvious lean but are very low resolution. The edge evidence does not support a consequential triangle-orientation concern.

S001 S002 S004

Hands, text and date

S004 shows intact visible hand shapes and a legible date 23. Hands cover portions of dial text and markers; sticker graphics and reflections cross the lower dial in S004 and S005. No malformed character or visible hand defect is established.

S001 S004 S005 S012

Raised bezel

S004’s native bezel view shows the numbered insert and triangular reference, but is tilted and reflective. No independently corroborated local numeral-spacing or transition defect is supplied. A consequential bezel-alignment claim is unsupported.

S002 S004 S007

Exterior finish requires confirmation

S008 reports multiple fine linear marks on the polished clasp; S007 and S009 also report exterior scuff-like lines. Reflections, residue and protective material remain plausible alternatives. Repeated finish concerns should not be dismissed as one isolated reflection, although the records do not prove permanent scratches or demonstrate the same scratch across views. Obtain cleaned, film-free diffuse-light photographs of the named surfaces at two angles before clearing finish QC.

Timegrapher snapshot

Rate +3 s/day; Amplitude 266 °; Beat error 0 ms; Lift angle 52 ° Displayed amplitude depends on the selected lift angle; the correct setting for the installed movement is not verified. Winding, stabilization, position and recording duration are unknown. Two transcriptions of one source are not independent timing measurements.

S014

Red ring: printed dial-track reference. Red dashed rays continue the dial positions across the bezel for visual comparison only; they do not correct, measure or set a tolerance for the raised bezel or cyclops. Cyan crosshairs mark the dial’s cardinal axes. Green lines show released luminous-insert axes, and amber outlines show candidate reflective edges. Positive angles are clockwise; negative angles counterclockwise. Sensitivity ranges are not confidence intervals. Native close-ups preserve the source view.
