Well I just got back one of my all time favorites; the brushed Blackbird. I LOVE the faceted bracelet, but also like to change up the look with various straps. I just ordered a new Ocean Racer for it, but am undecided which clasp to go with it, brushed or polished? The strap will be used on the following watches: Brushed Blackbird (polished sides)  B-1 SQ (polished)  Chrono Avenger (ti)  What say you? -Don |

Voted brushed. Polished just shows scratches too easily, especially on a clasp. |

I vote brushed as it will better match the Blackbird and the CA than a polished finish. Two out of three ain't bad! |

Another vote for brushed. As a BlackBird owner, I love the watch, and while I find the polished finishes intriguing, I wear mine every day (M-F at least), so I'd rather ward off some scratches. |

I have my BB+ on a Brushed Deployant (only one I have ever seen).

I've just done the old 'tap on the teeth test' and I'm not sure, Ti or brushed steel. |
