), I decided to do the same! Thanks for the help from Stew77 for the link by the way!
Well armed with my dremel with a wood-stick inside and some special alcohol for ripping paints off(As I had only that), I attacked the bezel during one hour and half. I didn't want to bade it in white-spirit in fear that it goes on the gasket under the bezel and eat it out, so I just applicated carefully the industrial "red-booze" I had, with a cotton tip.
The dremel made most of the job with it's wood stick for not scratching the steel. A thin wooden tooth-pick and a brass needle did the finish in the corners... The paint residues around the numbers and inside the first minutes tags are the most uneasy but with patience, it comes off: It have to, because you can't look at a half finished bezel...It's just too horrible:D
So here it is!!
I must say! I like it much better now! The watch feels upgraded and it gives a higher quality touch somehow: Well, that's my own opinion and as I like unique or custom models, I'm a happy camper! When the all watch will be polished again, it will become one of my favorites for sureperfect.gif
Same watch 2 hours ago;)
