You should have sold it. These are rare pieces. Now it is just wasted. But it is yours and you are free to do what you want to do with your watch.

Please, Lord, save those who don't have a clue what they are doing. Here's a lost soul who really fucked up royally, and that's coming from one of the strongest advocates of patina.

That's not aged, patina? It looks like it's been in a 3 alarm fire. Why in the heck would anyone do this on purpose? It's just completely destroyed, what a waste, seriously what possessed the OP?

I can't say I like the end result but as long as OP is happy with it then I guess it's fine. At least it'll be going towards learning the do's and dont's for future projects. Blasamic vinegar is a don't imho :D
