Sand blasting

Froggy, I would suggest vapour honing, it gives a nice satin finish on stainless.

vapour honing
What is that ? like bead blasting but steam is the vector ?

Water and an abrasive are used.

Can I do that in my dish-washer ??
Seriously, do you know of companies where I can send my case for them to work their magic on it ?
Thanks VM

Just about anywhere that does anodising will do vapour honing

Another alternative is soda blasting, instead of firing sand or silica media, it fires bicarbonate of soda as it turns to a fine dust on impact, so it is good for cleaning dirt off items you don't want damaged too.
My brother had his tractor soda blasted clean, but I'm unsure if anywhere will do something so small as a watch bezel?
