I dropped my Sub off on a Rubber B. For 2 K, they installed a new one at the Service Center in Dallas. I had purchased it that way. Just takes $$$$$. Put it on my BLNR.

Looks sharp with the fully brushed braclet! Perhaps more sporty looking. Maybe that's how it should be in the first place (?). Thanks for sharing. Cheers!

Boaters · 2 June 2018, 10:12 AM

Very nice good job!

crippy1082 · 2 June 2018, 10:14 AM

Can that be reversed? Just curious, I have a Batman as well and like the brushed look...but just in case.

Perfect!

GMT Aviator · 2 June 2018, 10:57 AM

Did the same with my LN. Ordered the sub bracelet for it the day I bought the watch a few years ago.
Like the PCL’s on my DJ2 but not on the GMT, they had to go, plus you get the glidelock.
Why oh why Rolex don’t just sell the GMT with a brushed bracelet from the factory is beyond comprehension. If anything, it might enhance sales, not hit them.

Tiptac · 2 June 2018, 11:05 AM

That looks amazing. Wish the BLNR came like this. Never been a fan of the PCL. Makes it took too shiny and takes more away from the tool aesthetic

mobster600 · 2 June 2018, 11:06 AM

very nice, it works well!

WatchinMD · 2 June 2018, 11:40 AM

Looks good. I do like the PCLs though

AJM914 · 2 June 2018, 11:45 AM

Very nice!

SoCal_Batman · 2 June 2018, 11:59 AM

Wow, the brushed steel bracelet looks incredible!! Nice job and thanks for sharing!

Ben.McDonald7 · 2 June 2018, 12:04 PM

Really tempting to try and pick one up for my BLNR.

Awesome look!

10klakes · 2 June 2018, 02:33 PM

I did the same to my BLNR and absolutely love the glidelock. I just purchased one for my 16610LV. They don’t come cheap and take a little searching but they can be sourced.

Great pictures. My SubC bracelet is waiting at AD and I will pick up in 2 weeks and I will swap out the PCL bracelet for the brushed one. Any issues in putting on the SubC bracelet?

importstunna · 2 June 2018, 03:09 PM

Looks great! Good pics as well.

eonflux · 2 June 2018, 03:22 PM

Brilliant!!! I hope Rolex is taking notice!!!

cajerseyboy · 2 June 2018, 05:41 PM

Looks great and would consider this move if the BLNR was in a 1 watch rotation.

seadweller43 · 2 June 2018, 06:47 PM

never been a fan of the blnr, but I found it attractive on this new bracelet.

chipbutty55 · 2 June 2018, 07:01 PM

This is exactly what I would want to do - I just need to be lucky enough to actually get hold of the watch from my AD and find the brushed bracelet for sale....
Not asking for too much then.....!!

soundwave · 2 June 2018, 07:29 PM

MUCH MUCH better!

Time taker · 2 June 2018, 07:40 PM

I think it looks great! Thumbs up from me!

sager · 2 June 2018, 07:44 PM

Tempted to make the same move.

Great job.

Kingfish01 · 2 June 2018, 11:25 PM

I wonder if upon servicing, Rolex would replace the non standard bracelet

Oh I’d put the original bracelet back on for sure if it needed to go in. I agree I don’t think they would like the mod not being born this way etc.

Time666 · 3 June 2018, 12:10 AM

Glad you like it, seems to have had a positive response and I’m pleased with how it looks.

Plus I can always pop the pcl oyster bracelet back on in future, just nice to see it with the brushed sub bracelet on, seems to suit it anyway.
