Looking for advice on case restoration

Hi gang, I was hoping to get some feedback regarding the case on my 5-digit sub date from 2006

LONG story short... I am the original owner of the piece minus about 8 months. During this time, the previous owner looks to have had the case polished. I assume, based on images I have seen, over polished the case.

As I am not an expert on what over-polishing actually looks like or what the original should look like, I would like some feedback / friendly advice on a few items.

1) first and foremost... is the polishing really even THAT bad?
2) If yes to #1, who is recommended for repair? I have seen good feedback on Rolliworks and LA watch works. Any recent experience with either?
3) Any concerns with case repair? Does this type of work "void" the authenticity of my piece?

To be 100% honest, it does not bother me too much but would love your 2-cents!

Thanks all!
