Rolex had chamfers / bevels on Explo 2 Sub SD and GMT on 4 and 5 digits it’s a beautiful and subtle detail and V brushing on lugs as well. They removed them on the 6 digits and switch to vertical brushing on lugs. Much easier to produce and no more hassle when repolishing the watch at RSC.

The chamfers on the Tudors are not real chamfers are the case is directly cut like this.

Interesting to see that Rolex reintroduced chamfers on the Deepsea Challenge. They might come back on the other models in the future.
