Anyone know who polishes for tropicalwatch?
I notice tropical watch always has vintage and neo vintage watches that have a nice sharp case. Does anyone know who they use to polish their watches?

I'm sure there is more than just polishing. There is probably quite a bit of laser welding and case forming as well. Vintage watches don't look that good by merely polishing them.

Pretty sure he uses true patina to service the watches that need it before listing. https://www.truepatina.com/

I know HQ Milton have used the LA guys.
These days I note that a lot of the service papers from Tropical Watch come from True Patina LLC (www.truepatina.com). |
