Yes diamond cut, have them on mine
Also check that they have not been cracked if it looks like they have been knocked about a bit. Apparently they can crack on the inside lip reasonably easy too
 
I was hoping you would say that they were not.

Has anyone managed to successfully refurbish them or have people just sent them off to be powder coated instead.

From what I can tell the diamond cut finish is nice but far too high maintenance.
 
I refurbed the edges on mine and primed painted and lacquered them. Fair effort wet n dry lots of work but really happy with the finish. If it had not have come out well if have had them powder coated in a bright silver finish. Don't really like the diamond cut high maintenance finish.

You can get them refinished as diamond cut but it depends on the level of damage as they have to basically re-lathe/cut the face again.
