ABC watchwerks - amazing experiance
hi there guys , my name is david i am a new member to this community
i would like to share an amazing experience i had with a very skillful person i guess you all know him already but for me its always a pleasure to come across people like him . BUT FIRST ( AS I REALIZED FROM READING HERE FOR A LIL WHILE ) LET ME PUT SOME PICTURES UP so three weeks ago i purchased this little guy here DAY DATE 1803 florentine finish  as you can see in the pictures its pretty banged up and scratched  the case back looks like it was hammered to look like an old knight's shield  the case in total was bruised very badly so i looked up the internet and found a very similar project here on this forum that DALTON - ABC WATCHWERKS did and so i called for help here are the resaults : |

Looks like Dalton's gone buck wild with the polishing for it to have disappeared like that.
