Very interesting. Not sure I would do it. Then again, not sure I wouldn't. My first choice is to stay all original. But I don't mind a mix & match with real Rolex components. I've seen pics of a GMT [16710] with the new style jubilee, a GMT with a new Daytona bracelet, and the new GMT with brushed center links.
Kinda like it. Time would tell if it stayed like that.
Thanks for sharing your experience and pics.

It is going to stay this way! Like the brushed SS Bracelet, combined with the TT Dial and Bezel. And the TT Clasp on the opposite side.

Very comfortable as well!
Chad,

Why mess around with a perfect Rolex when you are buying an SS gmt backup?

Chad I have to agree...its like taking the Mona Lisa and painting a bikini on her The TT GMT is just that TT! It is the perfect blend.

But I admire your creativity...always have and always will

does that mean that any brushed SS oyster bracelet (eg. GMT II 16710) would fit the GMT IIc in place of its polished bracelet?

I thought the lug spacings are wider apart?

I would never do that.Not because I think it`s ugly(it isn`t,it looks o.k.),but because I don`t like messin` with such pieces as Rolex.
But,if YOU like it,then it`s great!That is only important,so wear it in a good health!
