Looks great. Mind sharing what you use to sand the bracelet? And what you use to polish the shiny parts?
This is a long process (it takes about 8 hours). Polishing pastes of different grain sizes are used for this result. Satin is made with a scotch-bright sponge. Manually, without using machines.

Wow great work! Love the beveled edges of the case/bracelet. it makes it look so much more genuine where as the reps are super sharp and straight. I have to go buy a Dremel and polishing bits to try it out.
The client has an original rolex. His requirement was exactly this regarding the edges.

I think you might be doing it wrong.
You're quite obviously touting for business on RWI. Do you tell potential customers what country you are in ?
You think so. I have already contacted the administrator. Before creating my section, he said that first you need to fill the forum with your works. You can contact
C Master. I discussed this with him.
In general, I don't understand what's wrong with filling a forum. Everything has long since moved to the media and telegram. Forums are becoming obsolete. Instead of gratitude - suspicion. It's not very pleasant to hear that. If you doubt it, you can look at my personal messages

It should take no more than 3 hours from start to finish to refinish a case and bracelet in that condition - only very superficial scratches, which actually look like they were added for the purpose of this thread.
You quoted one above and it would benefit you to take note.

Now that you’ve mentioned it I cannot unsee it… how tf gets that many scratches on the caseback? Also the sides of the bracelet? looking at my watches that I daily (7 gens and 8 reps) and there isn’t a single scratch on the sides/polished bits.
You can post what you want (subject to the forum rules), no one is stopping you, but if you make a statement that is incorrect, don't be surprised when someone calls you on it.
If you don't want to be called on it (or can't handle criticism) don't make an incorrect statement, or don't post here - 2 very simple solutions.
