^^^ Quite like that.
Contrary to what I said a few posts above, I think I'm going to do it, Paul. I'll drop you a line about it.
Yes, that seems to be the general view (it's certainly mine).
Hmmm... I do like it A LOT on the bracelet, actually :)
What I didn’t know was that the 62510H Jubilee bracelet fits the BLNR case (so long as it’s the one that came on an Oyster). I’m a bit annoyed, actually, as I’d have hung on to mine had I realised.
Yes, I've decided to err on the side of caution with that one. I actually think it would look alright, though.
Happy to if you'll give me the SD43 :thumbsup:
Agree with that, I think, although I do quite fancy a Jubilee.
Just thought I'd post a wrist shot to show the quality of Paul's work, and how good the BLNR looks with a fully-brushed bracelet. I think this should be how it leaves the factory, personally,...
Thanks Ken, and I think I probably agree with you regarding my TT Sub. That said, I know that Paul would do another superb job, so I haven't completely discounted the idea.
I'm seriously thinking of doing this one now...

Glad everyone seems to like it, which kind of validates the fact that I've had it done twice now :thumbsup:
Yes, all the links were done.
I have no idea why you'd make that very strange...
Thanks and absolutely, Graham - Paul did a brilliant job, and it was actually the second bracelet he's done for me now.
Cheers all - I'm really pleased with it.
Quick update, as I know you guys will barely have been sleeping as you wait expectantly to see the end result :biggrin-new: Well, here it is, and I'm very pleased indeed... no brusher's remorse...
The BLNR, Graham? No, I love it and intend to hang onto it for the long term.
Well, for anyone who might be even vaguely interested, I'm proceeding with this little project and will update the thread as and when. I'm going for the exact finish shown in the photos in the OP -...
Agreed. However, I’d just get the bracelet you have brushed instead. It’s not like you can pick up an extra bracelet on the cheap.
A couple more shots of my old LN after brushing...

Hmmm... I think I'm favouring the "go for it" option right now. I'll make some enquiries.
Foxy, don't start with me at the moment, I'm not in the best of moods as it is :la:
It was so long ago that I can't remember, but Paul did ask specifically whether I wanted the coronet left as-is.
Yes, although you're far worse than me in the OCD stakes :biggrin-new:
I think it makes the watch look a bit more tooly, which is probably very appropriate!
One of our own - Gingerboy.
Just picked up a BLNR and am very tempted to get the centre links brushed. I did that on the original GMTc and was very happy with the result (sorry, the images are very old and I wasn't quite up to...
