Got this last week  Needed a polish, but thought i'd change the finish. I looked in the '02 Chronolog.....  so with a screwdriver and a Garryflex block, got to work. I haven't done it exactly the same as OEM. I've left the case sides, bezel sides, tab-riders and bracelet sides polished. .... but may go the whole hog soon. The bezel still needs to be re-done, as the 15min to 45min section is slightly rough.

It shows off the facets on the Pilot Special better than polished finish. |

I know, know, know.... I think a brushed finish gives a 'class' look. (just muho) |

Did you do a Evo brushed a while back? I have a spare pilot and I was thinking of brushing it. Looks super BTW

Very nice! I'm a big fan of brushed/satin cases and bracelets over the polished finish. |
