Nanuq Posted August 22, 2009 Report Posted August 22, 2009 I mentioned the other day how TJGladeRaider had so generously sent me a riveted folded oyster bracelet for my 1964 GMT. Well, a picture is worth 1,000 words... so here she is. The bracelet was still new and brushed, so I "aged" it a little to match the finish on my case. I like how it came out!
JoJo35 Posted August 22, 2009 Report Posted August 22, 2009 Looks fantastic Nanuq, wear in good health!
$tingray Posted August 22, 2009 Report Posted August 22, 2009 It looks that you trimmed the bracelet to perfect match, absolutely beautiful!

Watchmeister Posted August 22, 2009 Report Posted August 22, 2009 What a wonderful gesture and a beautiful watch.
Nanuq Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Posted August 23, 2009 It looks that you trimmed the bracelet to perfect match, absolutely beautiful! I used a compound called Flitz, it's a mild paste abrasive. I worked it into the links with my thumbs and over the endlinks. It leaves a black residue that repeated applications then remove. Keep polishing and checking your work until you get the finish you want!
