I love watching this stuff. You really get it. I see so many butcher jobs on RU-vid with polishing with dremels, just makes me cringe. You do proper work.

Excellent instruction, Fabio. As usual, I always learn something new from your videos. The bonus this time is that a friend of mine was in town last week and showed me his new Rolex, exactly the same as this one. They are beautiful and that bezel really sets them off. Thanks for sharing your skills.

Great work!!!! Just enough refinishing so as to look like a honest watch. You kept the character of the Explorer. I can see how many watches can be over polished. I hope you can post a video on edge chamfering. Peace and blessings!

Hate to say it but the laping is a mediocre job.
@Timesradical
@Timesradical 2 года назад
I’m not here claiming it’s the the best job. Just sharing how I do it. It doesn’t need to be perfect either I’m just making it look a hell of a lot better without over polishing, wasting my time or damaging the bezel more than it already was. And, I hate to say it also but, we both know the watch will most likely be full of new scratches and dents within the next few months.

Does the bezel pop on and off like the GMT. I was hoping to swap it with a different bezel

No this bezel also functions as the crystal ring. It’s a one piece bezel

Landed here from other watch stuff and I must say, nice work. This video earned a like, share and subscribe. Great care and attention with as light a touch as needed. Mine could do with a refinish like this. Do you reapply the black paint or enamel to these? Would love seeing that.
@Timesradical
@Timesradical 2 года назад
Thanks a lot! For this one there was no need to reapply enamel. But, yes next time I need to do the enamel I’ll record the process.
