Quality Control Process
Our quality control process ensures each watch is inspected before shipment.
The goal is simple: stable batches and no obvious defects.
QC is a core step in the order workflow.
Customers review QC results before shipping is arranged.

Overview of the QC Process
Each watch goes through several inspection stages.
Process flow:
Factory initial inspection
Warehouse re-inspection
Movement power testing
Timekeeping accuracy test
Appearance inspection
Strap and clasp structure check
Lume inspection (if applicable)
QC photo / video recording
Customer confirmation before shipping
This multi-stage process helps identify visible defects early.
Key Inspection Points
During QC, several critical areas are checked.
Movement Performance
Movement performance affects stability and daily use.
QC includes:
Power reserve performance
Timekeeping deviation
Rotor movement (when applicable)
Abnormal movement power or instability will be intercepted.
Dial Alignment
Dial details are carefully checked.
Inspection focuses on:
Hour marker alignment
Hand alignment
Calendar window positioning
Watches with obvious marker shift or serious calendar misalignment will not pass QC.
Case and Exterior Condition
External components are checked for visible defects.
Inspection items include:
Case surface condition
Case gap consistency
Visible scratches
Crown function
Deep scratches or major exterior defects are intercepted.
Strap and Clasp Structure
Strap stability and clasp structure are verified.
QC checks include:
Strap connection stability
Clasp locking structure
Bracelet tightness
This ensures the watch can be worn securely.
Lume Inspection
For watches with lume, brightness and distribution are inspected.
QC checks whether:
Lume fills evenly
Lume areas match the design
Glow is visible in low light
Uneven or incomplete lume may lead to rejection.
QC Photo and Video Transparency
QC transparency is an important policy.
Customers receive real photos of the actual watch.
Typical QC media includes:
Front view
Case back
Clasp
Bracelet side
Lume shot (if applicable)
When available, videos may show:
Full watch appearance in one take
Movement operation
Running seconds behavior
No rendered images or modified photos are used.
QC Rejection Conditions
Certain issues automatically trigger interception.
Common rejection cases include:
Hour markers clearly misaligned
Uneven lume
Deep case scratches
Insufficient movement power
Serious calendar misalignment
These watches are not shipped.
QC Timeframe
QC normally takes 1–3 days.
Complex models may require slightly longer inspection time.
QC takes place after order processing but before shipping.
See the full ordering workflow and timeline for details.
Customer Confirmation Before Shipment
Shipping only occurs after QC confirmation.
Customers may:
Review QC photos
Request additional photos
Ask questions before approval
If a problem is visible, the watch will not be shipped.
More details about shipment timing can be found in the delivery process overview.
QC Transparency and Inspection Coverage
Our inspection process includes multiple checkpoints.
Typical metrics include:
Average inspection items: 12 checks per watch
QC photo coverage: 100%
Batch pass rate: 97.3%
QC interception rate: 2.2%
The goal is consistency, not “perfect marketing images”.
QC Philosophy
Quality control focuses on practical results.
The objective is to ensure:
Stable batches
Proper movement operation
No obvious visual defects
In short:
What you see in QC is the watch that will be shipped.
