Brushing, also known as satin finishing, is a technique used to create a specific pattern resembling a fabric texture on the surface of watch components. It involves the use of a brush or abrasive material to create parallel and fine lines.

Typically, the brushing technique is applied to metal surfaces, such as stainless steel or titanium, although it can also be used on other materials like gold or platinum. It is commonly used on watch cases, bracelets, and dials to enhance their appearance and create a distinctive visual effect.

The brushing technique involves creating fine and evenly spaced lines that can be horizontal, vertical, or diagonal, depending on the desired effect. These lines give the surface a textured and satin-like finish, adding depth and visual interest to the watch.
