Scratches on watch surface
Hi all,



I bought a Seiko watch 4 months ago and I accidentally scratched the glass surface today! Although it's just a minor scratch, I would very much want my watch to be perfect. So please help me out here. Tell me where I can go to remove the scratch or if that is not possible, tell me how much it would cost to have the glass replaced at Thong Sia. Thanks in advance for your replies.

Not sure where this can be sourced locally. Got this from amazon.com and used it on my 2 vintage watches. So far so good on hairline scratches.

I think can get from JW at International Plaza if I am not wrong.

I was told can also use autosol but must be careful not to kenna the stainless steel part. These remedies only for minor scratches. Deep ones no choice but to change I guess. As for me, I just leave them. Makes the watchlook more "vintage" wink. Cheers.

Hmm... What about rectangle glass (for my Orient)? Asked Mr Goh at K2, but he mentioned hard to find.
