·Here for example.
I had the opportunity to observe this live at the speedy tuesday event, and I can assure that the sound one has the lines.
At the same event I had a talk with an omega engineer which assured that the lines are due to the manufacturing.
Of course the line is there, but what the above picture shows is the dark line between brushed and shiny (don't want to use the term polished).
What happens, over time that corner wears down and therefore roundens off.
When they come in later to redo the brushed finish, depending on how bad the corner has worn, it will not clean up and still leave that little area shown above that reflects light differently and therefore appears dark.
The picture you provided of the moonshine gold model doesn't show that condition.
To answer the OPs question: in my opinion the watch case has been refinished. Again I don't want to use the term polished, because refinishing a case doesn't necessarily mean polishing it.
