TT Daytona ReFinish Question

After ten years of daily use my TT Daytona had lost a bit of its luster. My dealer suggested letting him pretty it up. While very satisfied with not having all the scratches my watch now "looks to new", but I'm not happy if you can believe it. The Gold is to bright. Maybe I'm nit picking, but just a little to much gloss/luster. Any suggestions as to something that will tone it down just a tiny bit. You seem to come up with the most stupid projects while cooped up at home these days. Cheers, Rick

Wear it. Couple months and the swirls that result from wear will tone it down. Do not try to create any artificial wear. Just wear it and enjoy.
