Considering having the PCLs on my BLNR brushed. Anyone whose done it, let's see them please!

Ragna · 5 January 2017, 01:03 AM

Getting one in a couple of months. And im gonna do it.

Pcls are scratch magnet

If youre not on the dressy side.. then its a must.

Here is one I posted yesterday in a "show us your favorite pen and rolex combo" thread. I have others in Photobucket, but its hanging up on me at the moment (that site sucks anymore

).

I wear it on the brushed, but also have the original PCL bracelet as well.

So is that a brushed easylink or a glidelock?

Looks great, Bill.

Looks great. Brushed is the way to go.

Easy link. It's an OEM bracelet for the 116710LN from years ago. When I got it, I had also purchased a second bracelet to brush, so that I had both.

Didn't get them brushed and its not a BLNR, but its a GMT with a sub bracelet...

datejust24 · 5 January 2017, 03:47 AM

They both look fantastic.

tifosi · 5 January 2017, 03:52 AM

This is basically a necessary mod for the GMT. haha

Where do you get them brushed? How durable is it? I have a brushed wedding bad that shows scratches more than PCL

Good to see after a year and a half, a brushed bracelet was how you were brought out of the shadows for your first post!

Mine was done by an independent with a Rolex parts account, who did work for the AD I frequented. My contact there has since moved on, as have I.

As for durability, that pic I posted earlier was yesterday...and it was brushed back in 2006 (I think...whenever the 116710LN was first released). While not worn every day, it's definitely seen plenty of wrist time over the years

WAK4 · 5 January 2017, 07:07 AM

Here are a few more older pics (photobucket actually cooperating now...)

nobbylon · 5 January 2017, 08:03 AM

thats how it should look, very nice.

brandrea · 5 January 2017, 08:13 AM

I like the look of brushed but I don't dislike PCL's enough to do the mod.

Another bracelet makes more sense to me.

Vinyasa · 5 January 2017, 10:11 AM

Brushing the PCLs was the first thing I did after buying the watch, and I don't regret it.

Timegoeson · 6 March 2017, 03:50 AM

Can anyone in Bay Area recommend quality "brushing" person? And what was your cost?

Send it to LA WatchWorks. Not the Bay Area but they are superb. Would have to enquire with them on price.
