The new bruiser with brushed bracelet

[psv]

Isn't the internet a wonderful thing? :-)

The user Time2time over at Timezone already got his GMTIIC black 'n blue and already swapped his wife's SubC bracelet on it for everyone's enjoyment.







Just in case someone was curious! :-)

Here are some photos of his stock GMT.

I'm liking the brushed center links from the SubC bracelet more than the original GMTs PCLs. Some time and scotchbrite might be a nice conversion...at least until the first RSC service

He wears that watch more on his hand than his wrist.

I like the brushed bracelet...

[Cru Jones]

thanks for the link.

for the regular LN version of the GMTIIc, i think PCLs or BCLs is a push, but, for the black 'n blue, i have to say that BCLs look SO much better.






........but, "bruiser"??

i remember when during the basel announcements some people on the boards saying that nickname brought up images of domestic violence, so, i respect that and refuse to use that nickname.

Looks better each time I see it, prefers the brushed look as the bezel stands out more.Thank you for posting.

Very nice GMT.....the more I see it the more I like it but I do think if one follows me home my Pepsi will get jealous.....such problems!!!

Take it easy.....Leo

I was not crazy about the Blue and Black GMT but after looking at the pics with brushed bracelet i like it. Thanks for posting.

[sea-dweller]

Looks great!

[Vincent65]

that's better - never liked pcls

[kilyung]

I love PCLs but brushed looks better in this case.

[Tudor Fan]

MUCH better brushed!

[powerfunk]

Boy, that Batman/Bruiser with black-and-blue bezel looks beautiful brushed.

[7east]

I love it with the brushed links! These pics definitely do the watch more justice than the pic on Rolex's website.

[petenyc]

looking good

[Pup]

Brushed...I'd be convincing my wife that the PCL's look great...and "unique" on her Subc!

Anything can be misconstrued, "Batman" is unloved and uses violence, "Coke" is a nickname for a drug, "Pepsi" is filled with chemicals and is driving obesity etc. Bruiser is also an old boxing term, referring to a tough guy, a hardman, strong and heavy.

Hey, I'm not saying that bruiser is way to go on this black and blue GMT, it is just one out of many options.

Looks fantastic + Glidelock!! Close to the perfect one!

[MartyMcFly]

This watch should have been released with brushed links from the get go. So much nicer... we can only hope that the Pepsi version is released true to its lineage with brushed center links.

[floater156]

Brushed looks much better on tool watches.

[00pumpkin]

Looks wayyy better with the brushed bracelet.

Cant wait till they come out with the Pepsi GMTIIC. That's an argument in the kitchen waiting to happen....

[elohtee]

Great piece either way....but am I the only one who thinks the original PCL's add that extra flare not provided by a standard SubC bracelet?? PCL's on this one all the way!

I think that looks fantastic! I think the GMT11c looks better with BCLs but this one really looks great!

[Man of Kent]

The black and blue work well together in my opinion along with the white/cream of the hands and hour markers. I think the all brushed bracelet looks good and I reckon it would also look real good on black leather with white stitching such as a Hirsch Liberty

I'm on the same page as you - I actually find the LN bezel GMT to look better with the PCLs, but this BLNR looks better on brushed! Wow.

thanks for sharing

PS - Now let's see this bad boy on a black, royal blue or gray NATO! :)

[DJWong]

Thanks for sharing. Like it very much.

[jshepard]

Wow this watch looks amazing compared to the stock photos! Even more with brushed center links. The stock Rolex pics makes it look purplish, but the blue color is great!

[GermanyMatt]

Looks great either way. PCLs dress it up, BCLs dress it down.

[joe100]

Looks great!

[Trouble15]

That's a great looking GMT!
