Get Cape Cod cloth to polish it. Should remove all the scratches unless it is very deep

You can get it online or At JW

Just to hijack on this too.

There are two types of Cape Cod Cloth, one being the metal polishing and the other is the buffing.

So which of the above is the one to purchase as I need to remove some scratches from my watch too.

Not sure if we are talking about the same two cloths. One is with chemicals and strong smell. That is for polishing to remove the scratches. The other is dry like those micro fibre cloths. That is to bluff up to make it shine.

Hi Bro,

I'm referring to these which should be the same as what you've mentioned as well.

Have also clarified this with Gnomon that the metal is used for polishing and then use the buffing to finish up.

Has been a lurker in the forums and especially on this thread where everyone are sharing their watches which I really loved seeing all the beautiful pictures.

Hence, recently took the plunge to get a Steinhart Nav-B Chrono to replace my daily beater of Omega SeaMaster which was given to me as a gift.

By the way, any recommended sites to get leather strap and recommendation for leather straps which are sweat resistance given the hot weather in SG and I do sweat a lot with the hairs on my hands :s13:

For straps u can try JnS @ tanglin SC. I still think seeing it in person is still better.

Nice Pam 372. Envy people who can carry a 47mm. Used to own a 424 but sold it.

Hi Mozzozo, if you don't mind looking at Japanese brands.. I would definitely suggest the MM300. Superb quality over Swiss competitors at this price point.

Don't forget, it has a Grand Seiko movement in it as well. :)
