Brand spanking new (should to make it look older! any relicing tips?)

Replace the crown with Gen .. yours is very very thick. Shave the crown guards to be more thin as well. Bleach the insert carefully to avoid over-whitening .. and then tape off the crystal to protect it, place the watch in a jar of coins and roll it around in the coins until the case and bracelet are aged to your liking. It will take a long time. Don't use sandpaper .. many many parallel scratches (SANDPAPER) looks very fake.

What else! I promise, something different tomorrow. But I'm very happy as I put a 2846 I had recently serviced in this on Monday and today it's 2 sec fast!!!
