Frosted and brushed watches differ in the texture of the metal. Frosted metal sparkles in the light. Brushed metal has fine, parallel lines and a smoother, less sparkly appearance.

What a frosted finish looks like
A frosted finish has a fine, uneven texture. It makes the case and bracelet sparkle when they catch the light. The close-up below shows that texture on the bracelet links.
What a brushed finish looks like
A brushed finish has fine lines running in the same direction across the metal. It looks smoother and less sparkly than a frosted finish.
Our signature finish, refined since 2021
Frosted cases and bracelets are an uncommon choice in watchmaking. At Paul Rich, they’re our specialty. We’ve been perfecting our frosted surfaces since 2021, and this finish is what our watches are known for.
Frosted Star Dust II brings that finish to the case and bracelet. For the signature Paul Rich look, choose frosted. Star Dust II offers the design with a smoother brushed finish.
Caring for either finish
Clean the watch with a soft cloth and follow its care instructions. Avoid abrasive polish or scouring pads: they can remove material and change the finish. If a mark does not wipe away, contact our support team before trying to polish it out.
