My Seamaster Gents watch is very nice but the clasp on the bracelet scratches to easily on table tops or such. I have already had it buffed out once by the jeweler and its already scratched. My various Seikos and Citizens are much more scratch resistant.

My Seamaster Gents watch is very nice but the clasp on the bracelet scratches to easily on table tops or such. I have already had it buffed out once by the jeweler and its already scratched. My various Seikos and Citizens are much more scratch resistant. Welcome to the forum! Clasp scratches are a common complaint, but the good news is, it couldn't be any easier to buff the scratches out yourself. If you check out my SMP review at www.rolexreferencepage.com/seamaster/smp.html you'll see some instructions at the end of the review on how to buff out the clasp using Scotch Brite pads commonly found at grocery stores. Best, John |

John, I have tried that on my Seamaster and the scratches disappear...I have had mine for several years and it still looks great.

John, I have tried that on my Seamaster and the scratches disappear...I have had mine for several years and it still looks great. It's amazing to me how such a low cost, low time (takes maybe a minute) solution is so effective. In my experience, the Seamaster bracelets hold up very well, and are pretty scratch resistant. So, by polishing the clasp every 3-6 months, you can keep the watch looking brand new. |
