Bead Blasting my LM3?

[caesarmascetti]

I'm thinking of having my LM3's case bead blasted, but the sides and lugs only, the bezel would be left alone, and the corners of the case just under the bezel polished with some metal polish, any thoughts? Oh, I'd also have the dial relumed to make it much brighter

There have been many discussions regarding the pros and cons of bead blasting here on the O7 forum and also the normal dive watch section. I am having a non O7 watch blasted and can't wait to get it back. Strange because I am not a huge bead blast fan.
