I am steering away from the SA BS.. at least for now and was thinking that a baton black dialed SA wouldnt be too bad BUT, I was wondering what the chances would be of getting one brushed instead of polished. I really liked the pictures of the members Skyracer that he had brushed and thought that the SA would look bad ass brushed as well. I also prefer a brushed watch for everyday wear (which I would want to do) and a polished watch for more special occations.

Questions,

Do you think that Breitling would do this?

Do you think that an AD would still discount a "special order" like this?

How long do you think it would take to get?

Thanks,

Scott

Interesting question. My understanding is that things like this could be requested for an extra charge during servicing. Perhaps paying the extra coin would get 'er done ;)

There was a member, here, that posted pictures of his BRUSHED Skyracer that Breitling did the finish on it.. so I know that they will do it. I think that he ordered it that way, new.

I asked an AD once about polishing a Steelfish and he said it wouldn't be a problem and that they could do it. He said it wouldn't void the warranty or anything so I would think they could brush a Skyland.
