That looks awesome Joe! I've considered that on my IIC, but I'm too nervous to pull the trigger and "de-stock" my Rolex.

Your IIc looks terrific, Joe. Question- does it mean it now affects your warranty and the RSC won't work on it as a result?

nope, it was done by an AD and they said Rolex UK would have no problem with it.

worst comes to the worst, you could just pop the bracelet off and send the watch back with out it.

yeah understandable, ive not got a problem with PCL's at all, it kinda makes the watch look a bit more dressy but not much!

i did it cos after wearing non-stop for 8 months it was starting to look a bit crap, especially on the clasp. so i decided to go for what i thought Rolex should have done in the first place.

i have to say 5% of me thinks i should have left it as rolex intended it, however 95% of me is over the moon at how it looks now!

Joe, looks great
I am not a fan of the PCL on the GMT - old school for me.

Looks good, but I much prefer the blingy look. I like the polished center links- it dresses up the watch. if I want the brushed look, I use my Sub Date.

I wish I had known you could brush the links. I just purchased my SUB-C and told the sales person. I like the GMTII-C but the polished links kill it for me. I don't like to be "Flashy".

NICE JOB
