I dont really want the polish, atleast on the watch, neither if it is free, just because im sure the watch has a 'limit' of polishments, when it start to lose more and more steel due each polishment. If the watch isnt scratched, why polish it? :)

Before polishing my watch I make sure the watch is "cold" (i.e.: not worn for 15 minutes or so) and then I breathe on the surface and the quickly polished it with the T-shirt. That way you get some moisture on the surface which is better than just polishing over a dry surface full of dried out sweat and dust.

And YES, you can tell you AD / RSC to NOT polish the watch, no problem! But at least MY AD would charge the SAME fee regardless if he polishes the watch or not.

BTW:The fee in Denmark for a total RSC service is DKR 2450 (approx- = US $ 430), and as said REGARDLESS if the watch is polished or not
