Does This Royal Oak Look Polished?
Hi! Can anyone give me some feedback on this Royal Oak as to whether the bezel has been polished? In the photos the store provided (last four photos at the bottom), it looks a bit soft. But in the photo a friend sent sent me when he checked out the watch, it looks normal (first two photos). What do you all think?

Yes it’s been lightly polished. Maybe only the bezel, the case looks unpolished

I wonder why on earth you would give this 26574 to someone else other than AP to get it even slightly polished.

It does look polished to me.
Just ask for Vadim, he's the owner. He will tell you the truth. |

You could always bring it to Jonathan Shemtov at OvertimeNYC. He's in NYC as well and does phenomenal work. He could easily make it right for you.
If that's the only thing holding you back, you could negotiate the refinishing cost into the purchase price. https://www.instagram.com/overtimenyc/?hl=en Tell him Maciej and Dave sent you. |

The photos aren’t showing for me but you got a lot of experts chiming in here that it’s been polished so I’m sure that’s the answer.
I’m more curious what this is going for now on the secondary market? This model has become impossible to get. Good luck to you in the negotiations, and hopefully you got enough information here to close the deal!! It’s such a beautiful watch. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
