When asking a seller for extra photos of a pre-owned watch, what shots are actually useful as evidence? Listings tend to have glossy angled photos that hide more than they show. I'd like a standard request list the forum can reuse.

Ask for a straight-on dial photo with diffuse light and no flash, the full dial in frame, and the hands placed away from the indices (10:10 isn't ideal, because it covers the upper markers). Flash flattens printing and hides lume condition. Diffuse light shows print edges, alignment and any spotting.

Ask for profile shots of both case sides and a lug-top shot at an angle. Polishing shows as rounded edges, softened bevels or lug holes that look shallower than they should. Compare against a known-good reference image of the same model, not memory. A side-by-side tells you far more than a description.
