I have a TINY little nick on the corner of the lug on my Sub C. VERY hard to see, but it's driving me NUTS... It's right where it goes from brushed to the polished side on the lug. is this something that my AD can take care of when I take it in for a cleaning? I can barely get my finger nail to catch it but I know it's there....

yep AD can take care of that, plus the proper scratches its going to get!

They will be able to take care of it and make it look like new again when it's ready. I wouldn't worry about it since more will soon follow.

Don't try doing it yourself, as another recent thread shows, a poor job on the lugs can really mess up the watch!

The old sub had got chamfers, and these chamfers were functional by reducing the consequences of edges impacts... The new sub, with larger lugs, can be more polished: your AD will take care of this little issue, do not worry!

I think the RSC could help...

Unless your AD has a talented watchmaker on staff, it could end up looking much worse.
