Brushing/sanding the Seawolf bezel. Yea or nay?

[DMS]

Hi guys,

I am thinking of brushing/sanding my bezel a bit to make it less shiny.

What do you guys think, should I do it or not? The other little problem is that I don't know if the bezel can easily be detached from the watch? The screws on the bezel don't do the trick, I found that out already...

Like to hear your opinions/ideas!

Cheers,
Pat

Ok, I will be the first to ask...
How shiny is it?

If it's shiny, don't bring an Apple fan near it. Ha I kid

I'm not sure why you feel that your Seawolf is too shiney. The Seawolf case is largely brushed and not as shiney as say a Skyland.

Are you talking about the sides of the bezel?

Personally, I think you'll ruin it.

@Del: I think it's a little bit too shiny, not much. Not the side, but where the numerals are. On the gen it looks like it's a bit more brushed.

@MrZoSo; see above ;-)

I see what you mean but rather you than me mate!

Good luck!

@Del; haha, thnx...but uh...I was only just thinking of doing it..;-)

 

[DMS]

shit....I did it...;-) Just used a little piece of sandpaper...no turning back...

Pretty happy with the result, looks more genlike to me now. My rep:

I dunno...my bezel matches the case pretty well IMO. Worth a shot maybe, for those that are curious. You could always polish it back up a bit if it's too matte.
