On his site... :)

 

Here's the QC pics. I know it's not exactly kosher to post the pics, but I figured that everyone would be dying to see them, so I'll bend the rules just this time... :)

 

As an aside, anyone know what the thing is in the last picture?

 

Pictures in next post.

I don't know - I think that's just an illusion since the minute hand is at a weird angle and the bezel is turned slightly. I don't think so, though... I turned my iPod so that the 12 was straight up and down and the tilt didn't look as bad, so fingers crossed that it's just an illusion.

Anyone know what that last machine is? I can't for the life of me figure it out. It's not a second timegrapher, is it? It looks like a non-wet pressure tester...

Yep, it's a so called "dry pressure tester"

 

If you scroll down to about 2/3 you can see a similar machine.

"First I take the watch to the dry testing machine. This machine uses vacuum and pressure to test the watch by measuring the deflection of the case. I use the diver program that starts with a test a -0.7 bar vacuum, then performs a second test at a +10 bar pressure"
