Repair engraving blemish?

Hi guys,

I've recently picked up a PAM318 Brooklyn Bridge from a TD, but it has a small blemish on the bridge part of the engraving where it is shinier than the rest of the engraving.

I missed it in QC stage unfortunately as it doesn't photograph well but shows clearly in person. I am wondering how the engraving is done, would it be possible to repair? I'm guessing that it might not be easily repairable without the exact tooling used to create it? Like, I couldn't take it to an engraver and get them to "fix" that tiny section by resurfacing it.

I'm not going to bother trying to argue with the TD, this was the third watch after the first two had very obvious much bigger flaws (Damaged hands, dented caseback and this one still has a damaged dial but I'll replace that eventually)

Maybe you can ask the TD for an additional caseback?
