The point was more that mechanics don't risk high value watches if they are doing the work themselves rather than just presenting.
I agree with that, I wore a Rolex gmt and when working on my car it was the first thing to come off, second was wedding ring. Have you ever seen a burn caused by shorting out the battery across a metal watch bracelet?

The laser etching on the panel buttons was not in the middle. Every one of them was offset to the right by a noticeable amount and it looked st.
If it was exactly as the original and therefore supposed to look st then I apologise.

It looked like he was using something like Excel to align the number and symbols in their boxes and it was all right justified rather than centre justified.
Although it was interesting to see the technique.
Quite enjoyed it, a bit different, brave man respraying a RR using rattle cans but this must reflect on the cars worth.
No mention of the cost of creating a paint booth.
Roof lining was creased but could not see if it was repaired before returning to owner.
Cannot help but think a neglected RR could end up being a money pit though, who treats a car like this and does not maintain it properly, both mechanically and interior trim.
Following comments on here I try to spot Elvis actually doing the work and not just presenting, the jury is out.
Still worth watching though

Yes, of all the cars to do it to surely they’d have been better off getting a paint correction specialist or one of the these mobile paint repair guys at it rather than a bodge rattle can.
Paint correction is basically polishing.You can't polish flakey paint.Mobile guys won't do a job that big .
I've seen worse aerosol paint jobs,stand up Ed China
