IMHO, compressed air, in and of itself, is safe. Be sure it doesn't have a liquid chemical propellant that sputters onto the surface or you are defeating the original purpose.

the dust blaster not meant for cleaning your watch but to blow dry the left over water or moisture after the soap + warm water cleaning session, especially the bracelets

So, it sounds safe...but please just be careful about blowing too much air if you are in a swivel chair. See: Bad Idea
