Hey Mate,

This one of mine wasn't a Super Avenger but a Seawolf Avenger in Titanium, which I polished the case sides and bezel, it doesn't show in the picture but you can get the idea.

In regards to polishing it is your watch and your opinion. Just tape/mask things you don't want polished and go slow and steady. Another words be wary of motorised polish equipment if your not competent as you could damage the watch or yourself.

Cheers

im not sure if i will end up doing it when i get the SA or not. i would def. take the bezel off of the watch to give it a proper polishing.
im a tradesman and have actually polished alum frames, etc on sportbikes in my past life...
