I have seen a picture of sandblasted cases, but not on Pams, but it has me curious, I have a sandblaster, I need a pam now!

I think he means bead blasted. I have a case and bezel that I'd like to have bead blasted myself...

is there a difference in sand/bead blasting?

No. Sand is never used as a medium. Silica on occasion.

Anyway, BlueRadish is a strap maker and modder up here in Canada that offers that service. He has listed a couple of blasted watches for sale here I think.

Drop him a PM here cause hommage forum is a mess right now.

i asked him if i can post the pics here, i havnt gottn a pm back yet but i will keep this thread updated.

I tend to like bead blasted cases on Seikos, and I'm sure I would on Pams.
But I'm skeptical about how it would turn out on a Ti case. The deeper pitting could look really cool, or could just ruin the case.
I'd sure like to see some pics if anyone can dig some up.

Depends on the size material used to blast with. The finer the material, the shallower the "pitting."

I think that would look killer on a new 360. Radish is a good guy.
