Hi Richard, thanks for the info, I had already attacked the watch this evening and found it exactly as I has suspected, quite easy. I think the result looks nice, I might finish off with a burnishing pad later, but I don't want it too smooth, just uniform. I made up a holder from nylon rod the hold the insert at the correct angle whilst abrading and it made a dodgy job quite straight forward.

Best regards David
