I've got a couple of vintage watches that have had their cases polished and the original starburst finish removed.

Does anyone have any recommendations as to who would be able to refurb these watches and reinstate the original finish?

You could try Rocco Manfredi at http://www.watchworks.co.uk

Has done some good casework for me.

Thanks Gents, but rococo is too busy to do the work.

Any other suggestions?

I think it was just his polite way of saying he doesn't want to do the work for whatever reason

I had heard that he only wants to refurb cases on watches which he has serviced.
