Submariner bracelets on GMT IIs
Had anyone does this, all brushed bracelet on their BLNR, BLRO, or CHNR? I'm not a fan of the polished centers and would love to see pictures.

Yes, plenty of people have put glide locks on their GMTs. Or you can just brush your PCLs if you are the sure and committed.

Here's my 116710 with a 97200 bracelet. I can't get onboard with the PCLs and this just nails it for me.

You need to use the spring bars from the original PCL bracelet to make it work but its a perfect fit. Much prefer the brushed links, but i don’t like the clunkiness of the glidelock clasp. |

Just got my 116710 bracelet back from LA WatchWorks today. Had the bracelet fully brushed. They did an amazing job. Much cheaper than buying a bracelet. Shoot them an email.

IMO pcl looks right on GMT and brushed looks right on SUB.

I'm more of a jubilee GMT type of guy but if I absolutely needed no PCLs in Oyster- I'd get it brushed professionally. Sub clasp is way to cumbersome. For a 'cosmopolitan' watch the clasp would ruin it for me; best get it brushed by a pro.

How ceramic GMTs should have come from Rolex IMO. The guys at LA WatchWorks did an amazing job. The brushing matches the case perfectly.

I have my BLRO on a 97200 bracelet with the glide lock. I personally really like this look.
