The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Originally like this......

3rd one of these I've had... (2 x black 1 x blue).... at 40.5mm they just fit perfectly under a shirt for work. Everything I could want for in a day to day auto.








just wanted to deeeeee-bling it .....a little.






now.... excuse the pics... crappy lighting

please excuse the dust.

That looks really good. I definitely like the bracelet better with the brushed endlinks.

i like that
how did you do it ?
did it take long ?

Great look! I'm not a big polished bracelet fan myself, and the partial brushing you did looks better. Now, if the top of the GMT case was brushed, you would have it all .

I was thinking the same thing about the case being brushed, but I know that I personally wouldn't modify a case in anyway. If it was ever sold I think it would hurt the re-sale too much, but that's just my opinion. Anyway, again it looks great.

if you got the case brushed by another company would B-ling void the warranty?

I had the bezel off and was going to brush the top of the case lugs too. But yes, I too thoughtI'd never get it back to factory spec if I did that. Its pretty much the same config as the Rolex GMT ceramic.

Took me about 45 minutes.

I like the de-blinging you've done, GREAT! I seriously started to consider to do the same.

So do I understand correctly that you've done it yourself?
May I ask what you used to brush the links and what did you use to mask the polished bit?
What do you think, is much practice needed or is it pretty easy to do?
We need information!!
Thanks.
