So i know a jeweler Samir who modded a 5514 comex for me
He’d like to do more work like this and is located in Manhattan

Since everything looks good to me
I’d like the experts to evaluate his work

He modded the full case and crown guards

@Snoopdogg . . .

It's OK for a first attempt, but the CGs are still the wrong shape, and the lugs look awfully thin . . .

I am so lacking in critical observation
Should i ask him to retouch it?

Show him some pics where he can see the curve of the CGs on a gen, your case has CGs that come of the lugs in almost straight lines, it should be curved.
