Recommendation on where to brush my bracelet

Hey guys & gals, anyone have a recommendation on where I can take my new GMT to get the PCLs brushed in the San Diego area? I love the watch but dislike the center links. I've seen pics of brushed bracelets and it looks much better to me. Any help would be appreciated, cheers!

I don't really think he knows how to do it himself, so I'd say that's some risky advise!!! Needless to say, I'm sure it can be done with just you doing it, but I'm guessing that you don't want to ruin your watch. So, you may need to do some research on how to do it yourself or call an AD or PM the people who had it done. Personally I love both types of bracelets, but when I put my Sub bracelet (brushed) on my GMT 2 C it didn't look good. So, think about it for a few.

GoodLuck!

He. Is right I'm more impulsive but he is correct in the look of the polished center links it does look good . But if you feel the need to brush them its not so difficult read up on it and ask around or send it to a watchmaker the Can do it for you

I want to see pics !

Good luck but many of the members do it themselves . . .

There are several posts here on TRF how to do it
