Removing scratches from brushed SS.

Chaps

I know that scratches on the bracelet are considered by many to be manly badges of honour etc, but I have got a few heavy scratches in my 39mm Explorers bracelet due to working in the garden.

Some of the scratches are deep enough to be felt when sliding my finger nail across them.

I remember reading somewhere that Scotch Brite is recommended whilst others recommend some sort of pen type thingy.

Can anyone offer any advice on how to remove them or at least make them look less conspicuous or should I just leave them.

Regards

Mick

Polish if you must, but there is a certain honor in a well-worn Rolex.

Many thanks for the video. I guess I am going to have to order a spring bar tool.
