Ceramic Daytona with Brushed PCL and lugs?

Can someone photoshop this? I would love to see how it looks and I think I will be doing this to mine once I get it in hand.

If I ever get my hands on one there's a strong chance I will be doing the same.

Not worried about getting it... I am #1 at my AD but not a boutique but Rolex Rep quoted me Late Summer/Early Fall so I will patiently wait. I just think I absolutely have to have it brushed.

So my intention was to do a very poor Photoshop of a Daytona C bezel over a 6241, make it look like a 3rd grader's cut-up ransom note, play it for the laugh. But I think it actually turned out well so here you go. Good luck finding the vintage pushers and drilling springbar holes in the case.

I missed the photo... Anyone have the image mocked up?

I am considering brushing the PCL and top of Lug too.

You don't need a photoshop, because someone did it for real:

Perhaps there is merit in doing it on SS but in my experience with WG, brushed links scratches just as badly. Maybe even worse if the scratch is deep and against the grain.
