Patek Service Advice

Hi, I'm hoping some of you more knowledgeable the I am could share some feedback. It's time for my 6 year old Nautilus 5711 1A to go in for it's first service. This will go to Patek NYC via my local AD. My question is concerning case polishing. The watch ... 

Most definitely not

Best to look after it and do not get it polished. I had very poor results from PP polishing my aquanaut and it was ruined, needed a new case afterwards- yes, it was by PP!

I would actually go to a trusted independent watchmaker over PP itself

Don’t polish the watch!

I have had very good experience with Henri Stern Watch Agency in New York. They stand behind their work ( though it does take forever).

Eleven months?wow

Polishing is a personal preference. There's not a single watch I own that sits around in a vault all the time. Therefore, ... some of more "Frequent Wears" get beat-up! If it's an "Everyday-type" of watch that's suffered a number of years of wear I usuall...
