All 6 digit GMT 2 should have polished center links

Ah OK. I meant if anyone has ever polished the entire bracelet to have the "mirror" effect like in the central part. like these, completely polished on the left, satin/polished on the right.

Supposedly the durability of the movement is good is something I’ve established from reading comments here, is this movement noisy though? My final question before I pull the trigger.

Generally no (depending on your perception of noisy) . You can easily get the rotor silenced by a watchmaker if you find it rattles etc

I'm considering whether to get this GMT with a Jubilee bracelet. Can you tell me about any obvious flaws? What does the v2 have less compared to the v3 (excluding the issue of the bezel which is really very subjective even on the gen)?

I ordered with the jubilee, and it is nicely made. Most people just buy the version they like the look of. Though, one benefit of the jubilee, aside from style, is that it will hide normal wear and tear much better than the PCLs in the oyster bracelet.

Now that some time has passed, I think I might prefer the oyster bracelet. It is a bit less flashy, and I would appreciate that. My ideal bracelet would be a fully brushed oyster (no PCLs). I’ve thought about getting one and brushing it myself, as I know I have the means of doing a good job at it. I just can’t bring myself to spend another couple hundred on just a bracelet for my rep.
