Everyone here loves Cape Cod so I ordered a few rags today which I plan to use in the future. My Pro2 bracelet is the brush finish. The chrome was a bit too much for me but the brush was a bit too brushed, so I wanted to try a polish I had here called Metal Glo which I use on everything... The pics aren't great but they illustrate the additional glow. It's minor but I think noticeable. Any thoughts?

I polish the clasps sometimes with a professional polishing motor and compounds, but the stainless bracelet I leave that to my watchmaker to do. I have 3 super avengers all with pro2 bands. I sell those polishing rags at my jewelry store but thy are hard to get a shiny flat surface a perfect shine. 2 of my super avengers I put all diamonds in the bands, the blue dial is the only one I have not done yet.

Your pics finally opened on my IPad, up in north Conway NH not the greatest wireless Internet service here. Your band looks pretty nice with the brush finish, similar to my omega planet ocean chrono.
