 Well after getting my Conquistador back and seeing the professional photos I just had to do it. I prefer the bracelet on the 600T. the polished beeds look "real" and it looks closer to the vintage bracelet. The 750T bracelet looks rough and unfinished and doesn't have the same effect. So out with the tape, dremmel and polishing compound.



I only wanted the beads bit polished so I taped off the sides and most of the end links that go into the SEL.

It is difficult to get right into the nooks and crannies and I actually had to finish it by holding the bracelet in my hand and flexing the links so I could get into the recesses.

Turned out pretty good.





I'm not sure what Doxa have done on the 1000T but the photos look like they have finished the bracelet more than on the 750T. I'm certainly interested to see what it looks like.
