Field notes
The site distinguishes between recordings made by sellers before a sale and buyer recordings requested for a return. For the latter, the seller can build a guided sequence of checks, while the page says Watchtower certifies recording authenticity rather than judging what the footage depicts. Certificates are described as individually identified pages with passwords; sellers can choose frames to publish alongside a video.
