Me too. Highly recommended, but don't make a career out of it. Stainless 'holds' a polish a long time. Gold probably doesn't so don't let the scratches drive ya nuts, they'll win in the end anyway.

I have a white gold DD and a white gold 116509 Daytona. The DD seems more scratch resistant.
Either way, it doesn't matter. They are for wearing, and enjoying. Incidentally, you can have a replacement bezel on the Daytona at service time, if it really matters.
I'd never try to polish them; leave that to Rolex. But better just to stop worrying. Although that may be easier said than done.

Jubilee hides scratches 100x better than oyster IMO.

Surely a shirt sleeve isn’t going to be scratching your watch?!!

Your wearing it wrong man!! Both look BRAND NEW almost

This RG/Choco is a 3.5 year old DD40 worn daily or minimum 3-4 times per week.

This is a YG DD40 worn at least 3 times per week for over 1.5yrs.

I wouldn’t use that on gold. Wait till your next service it will come back brand new.

Removing a scratch is removing the surrounding area to the depth of the scratch. Keep doing it for every scratch and your watch will be a miss-shapen mess in no time. Like badly repaired car bodywork.

That’ll buff right out

I find PM Oyster to be much more susceptible to scratches than President bracelet.

Get a beater watch

Please dont wipe your PM with this brand.
It will make all the PM shiny gone unless you buff it again with rotary polisher.

Use Town Talk for PM.
I suggest this because I’ve tried both.

These cloths are designed for gold and are very gentle:
