 Bead blasting adds a nice dimension to a case and platform and it's a not a very common deafult for watch companies.

I have one watch that's bead-blasted and because of the finish, it looks vintage and really looks great. However, my one concern is that if a section of the blasting scuffs or dings, it won't be easy to find somebody who can fix it up really quick in my part of the world. And to me, that's a big risk area.

So I stopped at one and that's it. Nice to have, nice to hold. But one is enough. Hope this helps.
