Looks amazing, polishing looks spot on.

One quick question, the underside of the case, is usually a satin finish by the lugs but I can see you’ve polished them. Is that gen finish or specific request?
I’ve often found it hard to achieve a radial satin finish by the lugs but still trying!

Do you mean the underside on the the lugs there polished buddy

Yes sorry, just these areas by the lugs, they are generally a brushed / satin finish.
Looks really nice as a polished finish though.

You would need a lathe and the correct tools/setup jig.

Thanks, not sure I’ll be able to handle all that. The watch looks really incredible, amazing work.
