DC & Mark,

Thank you for your inputs.
We're many to share this religion in general, at least I'm one of them either.
But something is not well seen on previous pictures set.
Clearly, the case has been slightly refinished,
thanks god with very few case material and factory angles loss,
but the factory sun brushed finish is faded.
This detail is very tricky to capture to reflect what my eyes see for real.
Here's a couple of detailed pictures for better case evaluation

and a couple a comparison pictures based on my untouched 11630 P

Thanks,

Laurent
