Polished or heavily worn? Blue TT Sub 16613

Hey all. Does this look like it was polished at some point or just heavily worn. It’s a 2005/06 16613. Specifically looking at the clasp crown.

Looks like it was worn in combat........but not polished I would be more concerned about the dial.

This was posted the other day with a story about being worn on deployment by a Navy Seal. Something fishy about this.

I have the exact same date 16613 and it looks just like that (except the dial). General wear

Just send it to Rolex to authenticate it and fix the dial. Have them service it and polish it as well and you should be set.
