If you don't like it you can easily brush the mid link, believe me (it was the first time for me) the polished part came off like a butter with scotch brite, you just have to be careful to make fairly straight and fast movements, maybe do some tests on a cheap bracelet before...
Thanks! Yes I have brushed Oysterflex end links before. A steady hand and a guide to keep the sanding block straight made it easy.

I am really interested to see how PCLs look on my 5 digit watches! This thing is in the mail!!!

Here some pics update, with brushed bracelet and insert changed, i used a Horlogear one, with a little patience (ten minutes) I managed to reduce enough bit to get it inside the bezel, following one of the many tips of the mythical @KJ2020
What I didn't understand even reading all the pages and if the hands are fine, but I don't mean the size but the color too..


Must say you did quite a nice job brushing your oyster bracelet!

Checking recent QCs from other dealer’s, BP has recently shipped all brushed bracelets recently. I guess we were the lucky ones!

Thank you, at first I was hesitant, then I tried to remove some scratches on a cheap bracelet and I saw that it worked😬
