To add to the confusion, I tried to order a brushed deployant for a 20/18mm ocean racer and was told they were only available in polished (in USA anyway).

Was told the 22/20 and 24/20, in other words, the 20mm deployant is available in both polished and brushed.

I do not know part numbers.

Well I guess the logical answer is they probably have brushed or polished depending on locale.

Well I ordered the strap regardless anyway because the buckle on a DPII is a bit of a pain to put on/take off.
Hope I do get the polished version.

I agree, buckles on the rubber straps are very tight with the thick rubber. I also have a problem with the buckles on the leather straps, they have 'sharp' edges and seem to cut into the leather easily and wear them out at the buckle area.

I have decided to go with deployants with both Breitling rubber and leather straps.
