The good news is, it's not actually modifying OEM stuff as the brushed bezel is now offered as an option by Breitling from the factory. Cool eh? :thumbsup:

Brushed looks way better than polished. I haven't seen any at my AD with the brushed bezel, is this an option you have to ask for or will some models just have it? Looks great!


Iv'e seen both polished and brushed ones on display at my AD and changing from one to the other didn't seem to be a problem, so it seems to be an option. The brushed finish really makes it look more balanced and refined, and makes the dial stand out more.

Well, I agree with everyone else, the brushed bezel really does look better, but I like the polished bezel also. Sure the numbers are weird, but it's still a damn nice watch.
