Well I've had my Pam for a few weeks & managed to get a few scratches. 1 very light & the other on one of the lugs I can feel with my nail. When I bought the watch I decided to use it for my work watch, so wear it 3-4 times a week & knew that scratching it was part of life.

Just wondered what people use to remove scratches. I've seen a number of things around like polishing pastes & cod cloths. My other thought is to wait until it's due a service & have it done then.

Will that also work on fine scratches I can just feel with my nail.

I'm still wondering if I should just leave it for say 5 years & then get it all polished. I'm terrible for over cleaning things & making situations worse.

Thanks again.

I recall when I 1st scuffed the lens of my speedmaster. I was gutted until I realised it was plastic & could be polished out.
