Brushed DJII anyone?

So the idea came to me looking at some posts here. A lot of people are brushing the PCL for their GMTIIc as well as other watches. Has anyone attempted (boldly) to brush the bracelet of any DJII? I wonder how that would look. What do you guys think?

Personally, I feel that a polished case and bezel requires the PCL to provide continuity throughout the entire watch. Brushed center links (IMHO) would take away from the overall appearance of the DJ. However, brushed center links looks fine on the GMT because that model has a brushed case so the overall look all still comes together. But, if it makes you happy, go for it...your watch will stand out in the crowd and be unique to you.

I only like brushed bracelet on my SS Sub. GMT, YM, DJ, DD etc. should all have PCL like how Rolex intended it to be.

Wouldn't look right on the fluted or smooth bezel model if you ask me.

I brushed my GMT but would never consider doing so to a DJ. I am curious if anyone has done this.
