PM/TT Heads with SS Bracelets

Recently, I saw pics here of a Bluesy head on a SS bracelet that looked just awesome! (Just a thought, for those who like the heavier bracelet, what about a Bluesy head on a WG bracelet?!?)

It got me to thinking......

Does anyone have pics of a TT GMT or TT SkyD on a SS bracelet?

Or other TT/PM watch heads on a SS bracelet?

Wouldn't gold on steel cause a problem with the springbars? Gold watch heads need gold springbars, because steel ones will eat away at the softer gold. But a steel bracelet would probably do the same to the softer gold springbar.

Not a fan of the look at all, the bluesy looked all wrong IMO, but my opinion only. If you love it wear it.

SS and WG have different hue - so mixing bracelet and watch case in those materials will look silly.

Here is a 116610LN with dial and bezel and insert from a 116619LB. Please take note that the bezel doesn't match the rest of the steel. All images here: http://www.briljantwatches.com/no/items/show/?sku=1835

The difference between a whole bracelet and watch case will contrast way more...
