Hi

I am looking at a few Bell & Ross on eBay and I expect to get it serviced immediately (as most have not been). I know steel is more malleable and hence easier to polish out surface scratches, but is this is still possible on titanium cases to a reasonable degree?

thanks
Adam

It'll probably only need light brushing unless it's had the crap kicked out of it. In which case don't buy it smile

thanks - just want assurance that light surface scratches can buff out

I won;t buy it if there is more wear and teaar than that

I have a titanium Breitlng. It polishes good as new at a service, despite numerous scratches.

Yes, titanium looks great after a service. Mine have always come back with a brushed look, which I really like.

Have you considered a Breitling Aerospace Titanium?
