Thread: Recommendation for some bracelet brushing

  1. #1

    Recommendation for some bracelet brushing

    As above, I have had my Zenith chrono sport on for a month straight, and have decided that if I am to keep it, I will need the PCLs brushing out.

    I am happy jobbing at a few things, but I would want this to be absolutely pukka, and match the outer links perfectly - so no chance I will be trying it.

    Any personal experience appreciated.
    Happy if it is someone here, or a proper shop outfit.

    I have seen a few folks recommended here but they seem to be off grid at the mo.

    Thanks

    Paul/Gingerboy of this parish is your man. He's done 2 for me, and his work is top quality.

    Await the results with interest. I really dislike PCL bracelets, both new and with a patina.

    Every time I see the word Gingerboy has done with yours, it reminds me how much I would need mine doing if I ever owned a GMT with PCL.

    Looks so much better IMHO.

    I'll have to check but I believe its the Bergeon Very Fine De-Oxidation Wheel from Cousins, but its all down the speed to get the right match
