if you have steady hands and willing to put in some time. I use 3M Sandblaster sanding pads to remove scratches from the bracelet of my blk/blk SeMP. I got them at Lowe's for around 3 bucks. They are essentially soft foam pads with an embedded abrasive on one side. They come in 180 and 320 grits. I usually use the 320 grit. The end results I get using these pads are almost as good as the factory finish. Additional tips...use electrical tape to mask off any areas you don't want to affect. Also, do the work under a halogen lamp to clearly see the scratches that are there and the new brush marks that you are creating. When brushing, use light strokes that follow the "grain" of the surface finish. As far as your other questions, the bracelet is solid stainless. Rhodium is used only to plate the parts of the watch movement. Good Luck!
