This hand engraved Rolex Sea Dweller was just completed for a client in Europe who asked for a variety of designs that hold special meaning for he and his family. I went pretty deep on this one so it took many extra hours.

Very nice David!
Excuse this noob question, but what method did you use to blacken the background in the stainless steel?

- Thank you, Chuck

Mr. David.........does there ever come a time that you DON'T use your scope for everything or just as needed?

I use my scope for watch engraving and most everything else that fits under the scope. I have used my optivisor for large trophies, rifles and even golf clubs!

Chuck - As for blackening I use a combination of techniques including enamel and printers ink. Tons of great tips on this forum for blackening! Takes a lot of experimentation :)
