It looks very nice. I noticed yours is more of a flat black finish. Is that due to the material you chose for the PVD process?
I have seen other Rolexes with blacked out finish that has a little bit of satin sheen to it, which I like. I read up on PVD, CVD, DLC, ADLC etc. on the internet. There seem to be a lot of industrial coating companies who can do these processes, but none seem to have any experience with watches. I suppose casing, bracelet, and bezel should be no problem but how about the hands with luminous coating? |

your PVD finish is fabulous it is very well done..much better than almost everything else I've seen
it is such a major experiment, that I must commend your guts to go for it it will take us some time to get useds to a black-finish Sub but I must say the look is really stealth and military and very different, in a good way |

The watch has been sand blastered before the PVD-process to give it that matte look
