Go ahead and have it refinished. The bracelet is a straightforward job and very minuscule amounts of metal would be removed since it only takes a couple of passes of the machine.

Case looks great

Try a cape cod cloth that may help a little but make sure you tape off the brushed ends of the bracelet before using the cloth.

It did pass, enjoying the beauty as is wise words...thanks. RSC NY actually handed watch back to me and basically said don't touch it, its keeping perfect time, there might be a small "beat error" but just leave it alone for now. Wise words...

Good decision, but removing the bracelet and remove those scratches will not affect the case and will make the watch look new. It's even a very easy DIY and there is a how to sticky around

Leave it. It’s gonna get so many more scratches for sure if you’re gonna use it as a daily. Plus, you don’t have to go through the honeymoon phase!

It's up to you brother. Does it bother you that much? Then get just the bracelet buffed. Simple.

My Boss once told me that SS is a working Man's watch (No Offense) & scratches add character.....
