I got my blue dial last week. Again, 48 hours from order to in my hands. Amazing! I was a little surprised at how tall it sat on my wrist. Despite the dimensions, it definitely wears large. It would need some patina before I would feel comfortable wearing it.

So I ordered some liver of sulfur rocks from Cool Tools along with some polishing cloths. This was the second treatment. The first time I polished nearly all the patina off and I wasn't happy with the look. This time, I just hit the high spots with the lowest grit cloth to brighten it up. The pictures make it look darker than it is. I am ecstatic with the results.
