I've said it so many times before brushed is way better that PCL. After a few months of wearing her DJ with PCL the bracelet looks like crap. I'm thinking of taking it to my jeweler to have it brushed.

Agreed! ...though I believe a brushed bezel would also look really good!

I would seriously consider the blue stick dial dj2 if not for the polished center links. Similar to the fluted bezel,I think it's overkill on a 41mm model, but fine on the 36

I wouldn't do it, but if you're happy that's great. The lugs don't look factory-finished to me.

I like it. Were they able to brush around the Rolex coronet on the clasp without damaging it?
