Limitations
- This is free factory intelligence, not authentication, certification, or a guarantee of what a seller will deliver.
- Canonical identity is factual identity only. It is not a quality ranking.
- FactoryCoverage is research/coverage metadata. It is not a quality ranking.
- Community ranking is dated guide evidence, not ground truth.
- Historical factory information and historical ranking rows are history. They are not current recommendations.
- Comparison does not inspect a specimen and does not establish factory origin of a listing.
- NWBIG and Super Rep labels are source-guide cell annotations for an exact ranked watch or configuration. They are not a factory-wide quality score and are omitted when the 2026-05-29 workbook fill is not available for that ranked cell.

active
- Current listings still use the V7F label. Community side-by-side review of older and current V7F-labelled IWC Ingenieurs supports product continuity, especially on Ingenieur and Mark XX pieces seen in QC or in hand. That is not proof the same company is operating. A7F and G7F stay separate factory labels.
- Treat current V7F-labelled watches as an observed market label. Do not treat them as a proven revival of the original company.
