Has anyone tried it, and were you happy or was it not a good idea ? Just asking for future reference.
I wonder what a silver NATO would look like on it.
Thanks
Mark

Not tried it, but I don't think it's a good idea, the YM is a very shiny watch, and the PCL bracelet really fits.

tkc324 · 21 June 2011, 12:56 AM

I think thats the one watch along with Daytona that i dont mind the PCL.

I wouldn't do it myself.

Don't know if I've mentioned this before on one of your YM threads but I'd try it on a Purple NATO.
I can't remember if the one I saw was on here but it made the red jump and looked amazing.

Here's mine.
I had it brushed by my local AD, she's now become my daily wearer.

Looks pretty good, gotta think on this one

the YM is one of those watches where the PCLs work in harmony with the rest of the watch.

brushing it kills off the aesthetics...

+1

I think the PCL works perfectly on the YM

JJL · 22 June 2011, 12:05 AM

I definitely prefer the PCL, but I wouldn't say the brushed looks bad by any means... the watch itself is just gorgeous on anything :)

The brushed bracelet looks great.

I am going to have to agree... Although I don't hate it... I prefer the PCLs too...

I prefer the brushed bracelet over the PCL's..Just MHO..

dpkong · 4 September 2011, 03:13 PM

why bother to brush the PCLs? wear it long enough and it will have the brushed look!!

Darlinboy · 4 September 2011, 08:54 PM

Scratching it up could only improve the looks of a YM!

of course, not one of my faves, but still nice lookin'.

Mark,

Found some more pics of brushed (borrowed)

Runnin' Rebel · 5 September 2011, 11:49 AM

Needs a red date, looks pretty good though..thanks.
That's an older model, no engraving, great dial..

masterserg · 5 September 2011, 11:53 AM

Looks good but I would not do it if I had one. I like the shine on the YM.
