Removing Scratches

[T5SOR]

Anyone know a good way to remove deepish scratches on watch faces? I guess polish would do the small ones, but some of the deeper ones may need something else?

Are you talking about the dial or the crystal?

I'll assume you mean the crystal.
Some watches are fitted with very hard crystals - such a Seiko - and you will probably not get the scratches out of one of them.
Some are fitted with a much softer acrylic crystal and you can get scratches out of these with a product called Polywatch and a bit of elbow grease.

Google your particular watch to see if it has Sapphire/Hardlex/Mineral crystal or acrylic, then you'll know if its worth giving it a go.

Sorry, I was talking about the metal body of the watch, not the glass. I think the glass is Saphire crystal. (Tissot PRC200)

I've used a Cape Cod polishing cloth with good effect for light scratches. Bought a kit with jeweller's rouge, I'll see if I can find the link
