Hi there.

Would anyone have an information about removing scratches on watches?

It'd be for a glass face.

depending on the extent of the scratches....... this will sound crazy but it works.......... if thaey are small scratches rather than gouges.... try polishing the watch face with liquid brasso. ( brass polisher)

dont uses the brasso impregnated fibre stuff as that may be slighlty ebrasive. it depends on the age of the watch too. try it on chepa watch first.

Thanks Martron. May give that a whirl so, as it's a pretty minor blemish. I'll have to try it on a cheaper Casio or whatnot as you say - although before I go hell for leather on my Breguet I might give it a bit more research. Be a shame if the acrylic didn't take too kindly to the brasso.
