I love the look of the diamond bezel. But because this is my only breitling(at least for now!) which I also do wear causally, perhaps the diamonds are a bit too much for an every day watch. I was thinking of getting th bezel polished to the same luster as the rest of the watch. Right now it the top has a matt finish and the side is polished. Anyone have any pics or thoughts on how this may look?

Easily done and would look more blingy but a lot of watches have all polished cases etc so why not!! Are you in UK - I could do it for you.

If you find some pics of the older Chronomats and the older Wings models, they have polished Bezels. I believe some of the older Colt models have a polished bezel as well but i'm not sure.

I personally prefer the look of the new bezels better, but to each his own! :)

I have actually wondered what the bezel on my SA would look like if it were fully polished. I would never change the original but I would get a "spare" and have it polished.
