Thanks.. I'm using it as my daily watch, but kicking myself every time I spot a new hairline mark on the bracelet !! Anyone know if these can be polished or buffed out when it comes time to get it refurbished ?

Great choice...Congrats! The RSC will take care of that for you when you have it serviced. It will look brand new.

They sure can, trust me tho, the first mark is the hardest to live with, it gets easier.

Great choice btw, looking to pick one up in the next 2 months or so.

I found a good deal locally, $4800 for a mint V series. Was going to buy one through here or TZ but did't want to deal with customs/ duties/ taxes etc....
