It looks great, like real tool watch!
However, polished links are very nice, too, so I don`t know what would I do, if I had one!

PCL = Pretty Cool Links

or

PCL = Pretty Crappy Links

It just depends upon which side of the fence you sit. I like them on the IIc and would not have them on a 16710.

Although they do look excellent in this case and seem to have been a continuing debate since they came out.

My PCL's = Pretty sCratched Links

I actually posted a thread but the PCL's scratching easily! I have the same watch, If you don't mind me asking, how much does your guy charge to do that?

I paid about £50, but I don't want to quote on someone else's behalf as he and I are both members of another forum and it might have been a concessionary price.

Anyway, here's a more recent shot or two...

Nice job on the bracelet.

On a different matter, if one polishes the inner links of the new SS Submariner, would it look as an original polished bracelet?

Cheers,

I like the look! I wonder what RSC would do if you sent it in for service? Re-Bling it ?!?!?

Yes, they would re-bling it, unless you requested that the center links on the bracelet remain brushed.
