Which finish do people prefer? Brushed, bead blasted, or polished. I know that it varies with the style of the watch, but I am curious if there is an over riding preference. Thanks

I like all of them! My Glycine Lagunare looks really sharp with its polished finish, but I also like the brushed finish on my Steinhart Triton and Hamilton QNE Aviation. The only reason I prefer brushed finish is that small scratches can be easily removed. I have a "Scratch Removal Pen" (fiberglass brush). It does a great job!

I like them in the order you have them. LOL :cool: But in most cases besides a dress watch I prefer brushed. ;)

It definitely depends on the style...can't choose just one, but, by general category: 1) Dress: polished 2) Sport: blasted

For me brushed is the easiest to keep looking good and imho bridges the gap between dressy (polished) and toolish (blasted).

I like my Brushed Titaniumn Luminor Power Reserve, has a subdued military look with having to wory about getting nicked up or scratched. I have OldeCrow's Polished hommage and it is looking sweet on a Lanyard lines yellow bull. Attachment: PAM124A.JPG (Downloaded 120 times)

Brushed works well almost anywhere, though I do like a bead blasted finish on the right watch. Not so much into the polished look - can be a bit too 'bling bling'.

the finish once again depends on the watch imo....but for reasons of care and durability the brushed/satin is easieat to care for from what I have experienced and has a great look as wellhand6.gif
