I am certainly crazy enough to attempt it. I have done it to all of my watches and it usually turns out great. It takes patience... Worse case I could polish it back up to a not quite so brilliant sheen. I think it looks great either way. But i prefer a more understated look. Makes the metal look more solid etc. ;) Fast Forwad 3-29-06 Buffed.... Attachment: P3290176.jpg (Downloaded 18 times) Last edited on Wed Mar 29th, 2006 07:29 pm by |

I'd love to see this in a brushed finish too. The only decent pics (without the reflection of the camera) I could get were from the back. Here's one: ![]() |

I may only be able to fight to urge for a day or two and then....2000 grit it is. I have this compulsion to remove sheen always. :shock: |

On all but one of the watches the crystal was Sapphire. No need to mask. I have done it also on my poljot w/ mineral crystal, with zero damage to crystal using NO masking tape. I would mask it with masking tape just in case. |
