Well, I'd just leave those scatches alone! After all, Rolex is meant to be worn, and scratched cannot be avoided, not even on SS Rolex watches.

IF you want to polish the centre links, you can read about doing it here:

Or here (on German!), but with a nice "pictorial":

Anyway: As I wrote, I'd leave the scratches alone and only have your Rolex polished up every 5th. year or so when you get it serviced. Always always let a RSC do this for you!

We have one member here, "Wandyprawira" (Wandy) a really nice guy btw!, who had very bad experience with using Cape Cod on his SS Sub Date. He tried to remove a scatch from the lug of his watch, but kept on doing it over and over again, until the watch was deformed, literally making Cape Cod to "Shape Odd"

Now, consider that HIS watch was in all STEEL! And then consider that Cape Cod can do with GOLD!

Try to look at it this way: scratches cannot be prevented, and could also be seen as "patina" that is UNIQUE. Just wear your Rolex in good health!
