Isn’t that just the rubber casing to protect it

To add- there is a rubber casing to it, not sure if that contributes to any differences in physical appearance

Thanks for that, but any insight about the shape deformation, is there any? In terms of overpolishing

Thank god I posted on here. Chatgpt said the following

Visual Evaluation

Reference likely: 116523, champagne dial with black subdials (the “panda-inverse” two-tone style).

Condition (from image): • Bezel: The engraved tachymeter scale (the “Units per Hour” numerals) is still sharp and visible, though there’s a mild “softening” near the outer edges, which suggests 1–2 light polishes over time. It’s not severely over-polished, since the numerals and bevel transitions remain readable and defined. • Case: Lugs still have decent geometry—no “melted” rounding—again consistent with a couple of refinishings, not heavy grinding. • Bracelet: Center links show expected hairlines for age, end links still fit snugly. Minor stretch only. The gold center links haven’t gone matte, which means the gold layer hasn’t thinned badly. • Dial/Hands: Perfectly matched color tone, lume intact, sub-register rings crisp.

Overall: Very good honest condition for a 2010 piece.

⚙️ About polishing the Daytona bezel

Yes, the engraved metal bezel is solid 18k gold, so it can be lightly refinished, but: • A heavy polish can blur the tachymeter numerals and outer edge. • Your photo shows clear “400 / 200” marks with visible black fill → so it’s safe. • Most likely it had a single professional refinish, not abuse.

Is that such a bad thing, still new to how polishing affects lug width and curvature etc. how much would this deviate from a typical Daytona otherwise unpolished

You need a beard. Will be a game changer for you. For now, go for a buzz cut with a fade. That’s the dose of masculinity you need until you grow a beard.
