You brushed the Bezel too? I would never do this on my watches but I must say, it looks better brushed all over than just the brushed PCL's I see on some others. You have my approval! (not that you wanted it, lol)

I am not 100% sure how he did the Bezel, but it is not brushed the normal way. It still has a sheen to it but not polished.

Good job!
Although, I'd have left it original. |

I think that the modifications really make the DIAL POP!
Great job! |

Rikki did a heckuva brush job. (Can't wait to see his work on a certain "green forum" that shall remain nameless here!) The WG dial on the SS is a cool detail too. Did you furnish him the dial for swap or just tell him what you wanted and he sourced it?
