Rebrushed/Repolished Pam 243 Bezel

[plyschbyxa]

My Pam 243's bezel was badly damaged. Chanced upon a local rolex agent that did the rebrushing/repolishing for me.
Initially he was reluctant to do the rebrushing/repolishing for me as he said he doesn't repair replica watches.
Took me a few days of talking and he finally agreed. It cost me 70 bucks. Below are the results of the aftermath.
Would like to know how you guys think about his rebrushing/repolishing skills.
He told me that this isn't an easy job as the brushed pattern on the bezel is in a circular motion and not straight.
The bezel dots are repolished and they look really shiny. Overall I'm satisfied with his work.

He did a very good job!
But what have you done to your bezel so it looked like that before his work?! It was horrible, lol

Did he repainted the black markers?!

Fanfastic result!!

Bezel markers were repainted myself using a black marker. I tried rebrushing myself using sandpaper and the outcome was horrible. Hahaha. Thanks my friend.

With a handle like skratcha, I am not at all surprised. :lol:

Just apply a layer or 2 of black marker over the marker and slowly wipe the excess off with a tissue paper. Its easy. Let the ink sink into the number and then you can slowly wipe the excess off. (Wipe it off gently, do not apply too much pressure).

I'm interested to know how you convinced him to do it in the end!
