This week has been nuts... With kids starting school and everything else, I just haven't had the opportunity to get these items out (sorry).
Will try and get them out as soon as I can. Thanks for bearing with me...
The TW Best end links were 3 piece. I had to split them apart to reshape the profile of the center link.
I used the TW Best SELs as they fit the tightest to the WM9 case.
The WM9 SELs were a decent fit, but not great, per se. Those were 3 piece as well:
That looks like a series of cuts and scrapes that have been polished and worn down over time. You could probably achieve something similar by running a file vertically against the lug profile and then polishing down using a series of compounds and rouges.
I'd practice on a throw away case first.
A bit optimistic, methinks. 7922s and 7924s usually price in the $20k range; but $60k for a 7928?!
Well, I guess it is watch-navi afterall... Shouldn't be too surprised to see silly stuff like that...
Most of the damage is to the crystal.
The lugs look like the satin finish on the top surface is worn away, but if you look closely, the bevels/chamfers are still present.
Bezel teeth look nice and defined still... Albeit a little dirty.
Clean the grime off, give the acrylic a proper polishing/buffing (or replace with a new dome) and that one will clean up nicely.
