Thinking about stripping this down to the brass 🤔.

Just a cheap and fun project 🙌.

Why not. This is the joy of the watch bug.

found a pic online of an Expedition Chrono that some one stripped the case-coating off to expose the brass underneath ...

EDIT

Here's a link to WatchUSeek Forum where a guy stripped the case on and Expedition:

Thanks for sharing!

Lots of work to do it haha

But, you gotta learn at some point right? Haha

I was tempted to attempt something similar with a black PVD cased Expedition Scout, using a dremel tool ... y'know, to add some "age patina" ... but I ended up giving the watch away instead! LOL!!
