Sorry, bit of an odd one this i suppose! I just wanted to brag on this fantastic product which i had seen WTF menbers refer to (i apologise in advance if this contravenes any of the forum rules or general etiquette) which i got today and pressed immediately into service. I've used other metal polishes before like Brasso and Duraglit, but was never happy to use them on my watches because they are quite harsh. My newest acquisition (1991 GMT II) had a scratch on the side of the case which the AD refurb' didn't take out, but my new friend CC did! It even brought back to life my Titanium court ring which i've had for a few years and was quite badly scratched and oxidized, now that's really saying something since Ti is a notoriously difficult metal to polish (if you are an amateur like me!) and i really didn't want to make a mess of it. I can't beleive how good value they are too i mean the tin has 12 cloths in it for less than £20! Sorry i'm in England! I can't imagine needing a new tin for years! Thanks to WTF members for exposing me to this product, i look forward to many years of Vanilla scented polishing!

Couldn't agree more!! Cape Cod clothes are the best!!
I bought a refinishing kit from bostonwatchexchange.com and it included 6 CC foil packs, they are the best, brought my satin finished Omega Seamaster back to life and made it sparkle like new, the texture pad that was include took out the deep scratches on the buckle and the CC made it sing!!!

Hi Pauley, I've just bought a pack of 2 from e-bay for £4.75 as I had also heard about them on WTF Would you please pm me the details of your supplier that sells the tins of 12 cloths as I would like to stock up and maybe have some left over to polish the family silver ;D

They sell them on Amazon, though I'm not sure if it's the same for the UK.
Cape Cod cloths are fantastic!!! Love that Vanilla smell, just kidding. Don't forget to use rubber gloves!

Can you use this on the polished center links of a 116710 LN? I haven't been gentle with mine and I'd like to use something from time to time. If not, what can I use on the polished center links? Any advice?

Any advice? Yes you can - in fact, I have an article on removing scratches from polished surfaces on my Rolex Reference Page - link below.

Are Cape Cod polishing cloths about the same as "miracle cloth"? You know the ones they sell at shopping malls? Mike
