Thoughts On Sending My Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar For Refinishing?

Hi friends. I added this RO QP to my collection earlier this year. It's a steel/platinum version where the polished parts designate platinum. My understanding from the vintage dealer was that the watch was untouched, but I've been considering sending it to AP for a light refinishing to bring back some of its luster. It looks stunning, but sitting next to a modern 15202, it's definitely a bit softer. I'm curious if any other experienced Royal Oak enthusiasts can provide their thoughts. There's always a risk with refinishing where too much metal is taken off, etc. I'd hate for it to come back with a bezel that no longer has the bolts as sunken. A replacement platinum bezel isn't a cheap purchase. Thanks!
