Very good question Sir....I've been struggling with that for the past 6-months....I'll likely get them brushed the next time I'm in the UK when I have a red second counter and sub-dial hands put on....that should complete the look for me!

Good luck deciding mate!!

Since you tend to flip Clay...I say keep the PCLs.

Clay if you brush them - can they be returned to original condition - in the event you sell?

If you wear it daily it gets a natural brushed patina.
Glare disappears

I won't buy it from you in the future if it isn't original. Just me, and I'm not in the market currently, but if you were selling, I would pass if it wasn't OEM specs.

Old fashion I know. PM me when your ready to flip it.
