I have an uneven finish, which I like, but next time...if there is a next time...I'll do a couple of things differently! I hate boiled eggs, almost any type of egg...so I have no idea how long to cook them. Runny egg on the lugs, left stains that are not optimal...but not upsetting either. It's an organic process...kind of cool!
Things are moving along Edward (like you, the virgin 'gold' was just a bit too gold for me).
Ideally, you don't want the egg to come in contact with the watch when you squash it in the zip-lock. The area on the lugs that got the runny egg actually insulated the metal from the sulfer reaction that needs to take place and so it looks like that area came out a little lighter.
I made sure mine were extra-hard boiled (boiled the egg for 15 minutes once the water was truly boiling which is also supposed to produce more sulfur).
It is a bit of an experiment...
