How to Remove Scratches Without Polishing a Watch?

The case or the crystal?

The case on both?

I don't have those watches; would you describe the finish as satin or blasted? Looks satin to me...

If so, they're stainless steel and there's plenty of products out there for restoring a satin finish on SS watches. Blasted finishes aren't so easy, without the right equipment.

I'd say satin on the Crush......but the Bullet appears to be less reflective and more XM type surface. It more resembles the XM type texture.

An XM-type finish is blasted, so yeah you'd need somebody with a blaster and the appropriate blast media, such as the x-man.

But you could redo satin with something like this:

and that's just using gentle rotating motion?

There's gotta be a TWSS-esque joke somewhere in there...

The stuff from that seller, bostonwatchexchangeinc, comes with decent printed instructions. With brushed finished you want to try to maintain the direction of the grain but for satin you'd vary it up to give a uniform look.
