BLNR & LVC Bracelet Swap?

Ok, so before the reprimanding starts, I know the question of whether or not the Submariner glide lock will fit on the GMTIIc has been covered a thousand times. Here's my inquiry...

I know everyone always talks about getting the brushed bracelet on a BLNR. I've never once seen anyone talk about putting the BLNR PCL bracelet on the LVC. Anyone do this? Would love to see some pics.

I already own the 116610LV and the BLNR has always been a watch I've considered. When daydreaming about owning both, I often imagine sharing the glide lock between both watches and maybe mixing in a Rubber B from time to time, but for some reason not until today did I consider the fact that the PCL might look pretty damn cool on the LVC.

Thoughts? Pics hopefully?

There is a member on here who had the center links polished on his LVC. I can't remember who the poster was, but it looked pretty cool.

I tried. Didn't fit. I have one image in my Instagram feed just showing the PCL "mounted" to the SubC.

The BLNR-bracelet fits the SubC - but not vice versa. If you look at the bracelets side by side - they are not a like. You could argue it is strange that it works one way only - but some parts of life are strange.

wow really!? that's a disappointment. So just to be clear, you're saying the Glide Lock will not fit on the BLNR, but the BLNR PLC bracelet will fit on the SubC?

Thanks for sharing.

The other way around.
