My sense is this is an anomaly, and RSC Dallas acknowledged and corrected the situation by replacing the case at no cost (helps to have before pics!). Vast majority of the time it will come out great from an RSC.

For the OP - in light of how you wear your watch, I would pass on the polishing. I don’t suffer from “anti polish syndrome”, and I’m not a member of the “pro polish police”, though I do believe the choice is personal and situational and not that big of a deal either way.

Love the 126600, congrats!
Well Padi, here is the proof you requested...

Time to top trump all this silly talk with pictures of your workhorse SD, which has spent many years under water and counting, you can even tell us the story again about when you realised the crown was open underwater when responsible for a crew of divers...
