So while I was doing a patina treatment on my bronze Moray, I decided to "distress" my PVD Moray also. I like the results.  |

Very nice. I might have to give this a try on one of my pvd moray. What did you use? A scotch brute pad? |

Yes, I used a well worn scotchbrite pad and then a cape cod cloth to smooth it out some. |

Very well done jswing!!!  The results give it a nice broken in and vintage feel...I like it alot and the strap combo is perfect as well!  I think I remember Steve from Benarus doing this on one of his pvd pieces some time ago. Enjoy that great combo! |

Thanks guys, I appreciate the positive feedback, wasn't sure how well this would go over, but I knew I liked it. I'm thinking of stitchng this strap with some black thread but am on the fence as I kind of like it stitchless too. I did hear that Steve did something similar to one of his PVDs also, would love to see his. |

Yes I did this on a Moray 1 and I still have it. I will have to take some new pictures, it is still one of my favorite watches to wear. I used 1000 grit water sand paper, on the corners, edges, creases. Last edited on Mon Oct 17th, 2011 03:03 pm by Steve Laughlin |

I've never been a fan of PVD, but that one could change my mind -- looks great. |
