Any amount of polishing of a watch that modern is too much for me. The premium for an unpolished example is worth paying.

Looks fine to me.

Poor polish work begins with those details... unless in critical need, the Bezel should NEVER be touched by a polishing wheel...

Having own countless new 5 digits subs in the past, this piece has been polished but not too bad

Can’t see if the chamfers / bevels are still there but if yes it’s a very decent polish (better than most of repolished watches we can often see): nice V brushing on lugs, sharp crownguards, sharp case.

That looks unpolished.

Good watch. There are those who like it polished.
Price a little too high, though.

It’s polished and not damaged but it’s also overpriced. $9k is the target today. They likely got it for $6.5 - $7k

If you have patience these will come down as people who got these to avoid WLs go for the ceramics they always wanted now coming down too.
