Brushed as per gen - what the hell does this mean?

[TagHeuerFan1963]

I keep seeing people talking about how they got their watches modded and brushed as like gen and so on, what does this mean really? I would really like to find out more about this.

All that it means is that the metal is brushed in such a way as to replicate the grain and luster of how the genuine ones come out of the factory. BUT as to whether this is true or not is up to debate.

How much do modders usually charge for this?

Generally not very much, depends on who you ask to do it.

It means 200 euro extra. About it.

I have been wondering this as well. What is this worth? Can I charge more for a watch if the bracelet and case are brushed and polished as per gen? If so, how much?

I can scratch your bracelet for free, then it can look like a genuinely used watch [emoji23][emoji23]

You know how hard it is to get a turtle to do that?!? Worth a couple hundred easy.

Use this to brush when you don't have any gen left. View attachment 80596

German modders can help out I'm sure. Ship the turtle to them. But only triangle ship. Customs is a rough in Germany.

I recently had this bracelet brushed and polished for a GMT franken. How much extra is this worth if I decide to sell it?
