    Easy enough to polish a brushed finish with a Cape Cod Cloth if desired. Though I guess the reverse could be said for the polished hardware and a scotch brite pad. I can live with either one.

    Can't we have a blinged, shiny golden option

    As with most things, I'm easy and happy with what the majority want

    I would prefer brushed or shiny to PVD but I will go either whatever the result is

    Not that I know anything about NATOs, but am wondering.... would polished hardware make the grey of the strap look drab in contrast?

    (not that brushed is looking in any danger of not winning)
