Looks lightly polished.
Crown guards are rounded slightly. Nice watch |

If it’s not a new watch, but looks brand new, and is being sold through a dealer, it’s polished. 100% of the time.
However if it’s a modern case and they have a skilled watchmaker doing it, it shouldn’t be an issue and shouldn’t change the case shape. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Definitely looks polished but not over polished. The teeth on the bezel doesn’t seem as sharp but these are poor pictures so maybe it’s better in real life.

This watch looks great (polished or not). Nothing to worry about aesthetically.

Any used and worn full YG piece with no scratches whatsoever has been polished. These watches scratch just by looking at them! I own one so I know first hand.

It does look slightly polished, but with the maxi case it hardly matters.
