Rennlist-a-holic Eyal,

There isn't much I could do to the polished versions to make them any less smudge/scratch resistant than any other piece of polished 316 stainless steel that you'll come scross. The polished versions will require some "maintenance" to help it keep it's bright, polished, fresh-out-of-the-box finish. This will include a wipe with a soft cloth from time to time and maybe even some polishing compound if things gets really dulled. If anyone does purchase a polished version and decides that it's not for them (it ISN'T for everyone), I'll exchange it at no cost for a brushed version provided you didn't gouge or nick the top surface.

Did I answer your question, Eyal?

This is the best I can do right now.



A rendering is tough b/c the numbers don't show up too well. They are too shallow. With the contrast in texture on the real *****, it shows up much nicer.

I'm still in love with turbo insert. Seeing the shift pattern ones in person might change my mind though. We'll know pretty soon... Glad you (and everyone else who has received theirs) like the insert. Thanks for all the feedback.

I'll send you another PM.
