Its possible depending where the chip is myself would wait till normal service time. Gold being a softer metal will only take certain amount of polishing before case will loose its edge sharpness.

Thanks guys for the kind words :) That's what I thought so.

The watch is not with me now as I am currently out stationed. DSSD is my daily beater though :)
