Who can do a brushed finish on my polished pam case?

[wan]

Hello, i am looking for someone to put a brushed finish on a polished pam case i have. Who does this? Thanks, Wan

p.s. any idea how much it will cost?

I'd say every watchmaker should be able to get this done. You could disassemble the watch yourself, that should keep the costs down.

However I'd like to see how that turns out. Pictures appreciated.

I don't think I'd take on the the brushing, but I'd be happy to bead-blast it for you, if that's a look that you like.

I read that rex450 on repgeek does beat blasting. You might want to contact him.

How close does beadblasting look to a brushed finish? Anyone have any pics of a beadblasted case? Thanks, Wan

Both are satin finishes but beadblasting doesn't have any brushmarks. A beadblasted treatment is the normal finish on a Ti case so the SS beadblasted will look like Ti but the metal is simply not as dark. Personally I don't like brushed PAMs but I have seriously considered beadblasting as an option.

What would you say the finish on the rep version pam222 has?
