Agreed, it is a risk. And here’s an example, or proof as has been requested. The crown guards on the left have been overly polished down by RSC Dallas (~2018). The crown guards on the right is how the watch looked prior to servicing and polishing.

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!
