Bracelet durability

[Chr1sch]

Hi gents
Hoping for some advice here...

I have a TAG Aquaracer Calibre S (the Lewis Hamilton one http://www.goldsmiths.co.uk/product/tag-heuer-aqua... which I just love, it's looks great, not too big to go under a decent cuff etc

After 18 months regular wear the bracelet is covered in tiny scratches, what is the best wayto get this fixed and protected? (I had it cleaned by TAG but they didn't remove the scratches...)

Thanks in advance

Chris

Bracelets / cases with brushed finish can be "polished" with Garyflex blocks or Scotch Brite pads.

Very light scratching to highly polished surfaces can be polished out with Cape Cod cloths.

As for future protection - either take more care, don't wear the watch or chill out and accept that minor scuffing is inevitable.

For very fine brushwork I find micromesh 1500 is very consistent and have actually rebrushed Rolex Subs with it.

I should be getting the hardened 300 series SS samples this week.

Great thanks, there's no wy I'm not wearing it, what's the point of them otherwise....

I'll give the suggested methods a go...

If its brushed finish I recently bought a kind of rubber sanding block from B&Q.

Cant remember the grit size but It had two different levels on on each side. I wish Id done a beofre and after shot now because the results were perfect.

Imo the best way is with a machine set up I have a bench drill positioned directly over a rotating drum makes for perfect brush alignment.
