Behind the Dial: Inside Eji’s QC Process

Watch quality control inspection

Quality is not something we inspect at the end – it is built in at every step. Here is what actually happens to a batch of Eji watches before it is allowed to ship.

1. Incoming Material Inspection

Movements, cases, crystals, straps and dials are batch-checked the moment they arrive. Non-conforming lots are returned before they ever touch the assembly line.

2. In-Line Assembly Checkpoints

QC stations sit between assembly stages, not only at the end. Each stage – movement fitting, dial and hand setting, casing, sealing – has its own pass criteria.

3. Instrumented Testing

Every mechanical watch is verified on a timegrapher for accuracy; diver models are pressure-tested to their rated depth (100m for our A003 diver); and sample pieces undergo shock and drop testing.

4. Extended Duration Testing

Sample watches from each batch run continuously for 48+ hours to catch defects that only appear over time – amplitude drop, hand alignment, date changeover.

5. Final Visual Inspection and Packing

Every single watch is inspected under standardized light, then sealed with protective film and packed. A batch is only released when all stages are green.

Every order ships with an inspection report, so your team knows exactly what was tested – and how.
