Default Replace laser etching with rollmarks?

I have a 625-3 that's suffered mild pitting of its bead blasted finish.
Wondering if the factory (or someone else) could apply real rollmarks after refinishing?

I'm sure you could have the markings hand cut, but having a one-off roll mark die made would be prohibitively expensive.

Hard chrome on stainless.
I could get behind that!
