Today I decided to put in some cape cod work on my CM 24, and polish up the sides of the bracelet and case. I really love the brushed Navi bracelet on this model as the all polished version is a bit to loud for my tastes. The CM 24 has both polished and brushed surfaces and I think it is a great mix of the two surfaces.

Well in the moment a stray thought hit me, and I decided to polish the clasp as that had the most wear. I was a bit hesitant at first, but ultimately decided that since there is some polished surface area that it may be pretty nice. Anyhow, I think it blends really nicely, and the B logo and Breitling text really stand out more than before

Here are the before and after shots

It looks like you've done a good job it it there, but being totally honest I personally prefer it the way it was. The all brushed look of the CM 24LE is what I really like about it.

But all that matters is that you like it! In that case, nicely done! :thumbsup:
