Bezel teeth look a bit smooth and the exposed edge of the gold midlink looks a bit worn. Does unpolished really mean much when a watch is worn? I'd rather have a less worn watch that has actually had a professional touch up myself.

Best not to worry about polished or unpolished. It looks great. Overpolished is where you start to worry. Enjoy!

Agreed. It's been said probably 85% of watches for sale on TRF have been polished.
