to some extent its probably semantics. As where is the line drawn between machine finished with a hand finish touch up. What percentage has to be done with hand tools? I would suspect that the bulk on a bracelet is done on a machine for example and then it gets touched up by hand.
What is hand-finishing? Finishing smoothes away any tiny burrs or traces of machining.... So i read that as they are all machine finished and then supplemented by hand. No idea on if that is applied universally or to specific references though
