This afternoon I took my finish alteration one step further and made it aboslutely perfect TO ME. (I know lots of you think a rolex should not be altered like this, and I respect that... but this is what I love!) After making these changes, this watch has now officially become my favorite thing in the world.

Now I have the entire bracelet, bracelet sides, lugs, side lugs, all brushed. The only thing left that is polished is the bezel. AND that bezel POPS!!!!!

Now for my last alteration... I just ordered a green saphire!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thats right... just imagine it... It won't really be a 116400 (cause of the finish and the green saphire) or a 116400GV (beacause of the dial, the color of the 3, 6 and 9 markers, and the finish) It will just be a BASS ASS ROLEX!!! :)

Saphire already ordered, will be here in 3 or 4 days. Will get my watchmaker that day to change it out... LOL I won't be able to sleep thill that happens. (and yes, I will KEEP the mint condition origional saphire!)

Not sure about all the mods. But what matters is it makes you happy, it sound like a cool watch!

+100, I think the bezel already looks good though, happy that you're happy. Also all that you've done can be reversed if you want, nice job!
