Anyone have an idea?
As we know, the V6 HBB has a 'rep-ish' cote de geneve decoration on the bridge:
The gen's, however, is polished:
Is it possible for the rep bridge to get a treatment of some sort to have a polished look like the gen's?
Hi audace
FIRSTLY: if the bridge has some plated treatment you will remove it if you make some brushing and polishing treatment. Be sure the bridge is not plated or you will be able to get plated after brushing.
If you can disassemble the bridge, you could apply it the same treatment that for a brushed or polished surface.
In this case the problem is the black Hublot and numbers engravings, if they are not deep enough you can erase them when brushing.
I don't know what is the depth of these engravings or if they are painted.
But you can see it if you are interested. If you think that the engravings are deep enough, apply a brushing treatment with several sandpapers of different grain sizes.
You could start from P400 and them P600, after P800 - P1000 - P1200 - P1500 and you can see the effect with each grain size. If you have not polished surface enough you could use 2000 grain.
I think you don't need arrive to the polishing paste, a fine sandpaper would be enough.
To make it please read the following thread, it is the same process:
