Does anyone know of a service to plate Apple's Link Bracelet space black/graphite? I have a stainless steel link bracelet from when I had a stainless steel watch a few years ago, but I recently purchased a Graphite Stainless Steel Series 7 and want to change the color of the link bracelet to match, if possible. I know there are plenty of services out there to gold plate your watch and/or band, but haven't seen many for plating the stainless steel black. Any suggestions?

Try googling DLC coating in your area. I know of a person on a watch forum I frequent that had one of their existing mechanical watches DLC coated during an overhaul.. Not sure how much it cost to do it but the end result was excellent..
