Cheers Gary. Tool watch look is the intention, as it matches up with my current lifestyle.gaf1958 wrote:Generally speaking, I prefer brushed bracelets to polished centres and I find the C60 bracelets are no exception to that generalisation. It brings the bling down a notch making the C60 less of a dressy diver and slightly more tool watch.
Looks like you’ve done a good job on it Guy and I suspect you’ll be very pleased with the results when you fit it to the watch.
If I was still working and wearing a suit daily, I'd look to keep the PCLs.
Nothing particular to recommend I'm afraid to say.mik wrote:Looks great
I've just purchased on of those pads based on this thread - the SuperEngII i use on my C11 could use sone tidying up. Any good instructional vids/links you would recommend?
I googled 'brushing watch bracelet' and loads of forum threads and videos came up. I read a couple of the threads but one of them had asinine ocd comments about dismantling the bracelet into individual link.
A few tips to give you;-
1. You must brush in one direction along the length of the bracelet only; don't go sideways or circular.
2. Be positive but not too forceful with the brushing. Finish with light 'polishing' strokes'.
3. One suggestion I read, which I may still do, is to give the brushed bracelet a very light polish with some Cape Cod, just to soften the finish a touch.
NB> Alternative suggestions from more experienced forum contributors are welcome.
That's the hope Ferg.MiniMpi wrote:A fantastic job, Well done Guy !!
That will look brilliant on your Protochrono.
I'll maybe get it switched over at the weekend, although having found the 'perfect' strap in the AlphaShark Iguana I have a dilemma.
