This is a known issue with all noob version and H cases. Don't own a KW so can't comment. Will cape cod cloth do the job ?

Quite obvious which is then gen case.

yup, cape cod and a little elbow grease will do the trick.

Dunno about cape cod cloths, but I bought a bench grinder on sale years ago for about $25, a cloth buffing wheel for another $3, and now have a high speed, low drag buffing unit in my garage that makes short work of any watch. At the end of the day, I can switch out the buffing wheel and grind my lawnmower blade. Best $30 I have spent in a while.

The matter is not only the inner lugs, it is also the case between lugs that is scratched and the contours of the lugs joining the case, mainly at the top, over the lugs. Overall, there are issues of finish
In this regard new KW reps are almost perfect with mirror finish and clean and well defined contours even under a magnifying lens. I can assure that after several months studying all Luminor cases
We will see all above mentioned in next Luminor Cases Review to be published soon
