Lately, Ive been getting into Buffing....
Its a really fascinating part of renovations, but only really suitable for watch-cases that were already a high gloss/mirror finish. Its quite incredible how buffing can transform--what looked fit for the bin into something that at least looks respectable, and with patience a really nice--getting on for perfect--finish can be obtained.
Ive an Omega Speedsonic that has a two-finish case, high-mirror edging and brushed sides/bezel. The case, while presentable is far from perfect, but I would certainly not buff the whole thing, it would look just plain wrong if it was all high mirror finish....
