Olly 0 Posted January 7, 2012 right ill give you all the method, i got some cheep black nail varnish and i got some nail varnish remover, i cleaned the engraving with the remover to get the grease out of the engraved text. Next i shook the black nail varnish and applied it all over the text and left it to dry for an hour or two, next i got a thin razor and cut away the access black nail varnish. basicity cutting the top off it leaving a flush finish of black engraving. hope this helps !!! it makes the watch look more and more genuine !!! good luck if you whant to give it a try Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How come on women's nails it comes off then, it's bound to crack at some stage then look odd, don't get me wrong it looks great.
