but I can't find it here in Spain and Amazon UK won't ship it to me. Anyone know where I can buy some? My 1680 has a couple of scratches and I need to buff them out, I used toothpaste, but it just doesn't look as nice as when it's done properly with Polywatch.

Andad · 11 December 2010, 11:11 AM

No Thomas, it won't work on sapphire.

Hmm... maybe I should pick some of this up for the Tudor Sub?

Submarino · 11 December 2010, 12:06 PM

You should try using Brasso on your plexiglass. It works great!!!

Tools · 11 December 2010, 12:27 PM

Any good plexiglass polishing compound will work... McGuires makes some, also semi-chrome polish etc.......

So does Pearl Drops tooth polish. Any mild abrasive works wonders on any acrylic product , including watch crystals.

Funny you mention Meguir's. I was going to suggest but thought people might think I was crazy

The Quick wax I was already using on my Truck, so I had it handy to try. I later saw the PlastX on sale and decided to give it a try for removing scratches.

PlastX is similar to polywatch but I think it works better and you get 6 ounces for about the cost of two tubes of polywatch.

After I used either the Polywatch or PlastX, a few drops of this Ultimate quick way on a cloth give the crystal a nice deep clear shine. Even better than PlastX on PolyWatch alone.

Here is my Marthon Navigator with a Plexi crystal and after the Meguir's treatment.

Really?

Polywatch can be found on ebay its great stuff Autosolve metal polish in tubes works well too. Especially if scratch is deeper then use polywatch after to fine polish.

would Tcut be any use?

Yes. I used it a while ago on a Tissot Navigator from 1970 and it removed 85-90% of the scratches in one simple application. Put a light coating of it on the plexi and let it sit until it turns into a hazy film. Then rub off hard with a clean soft lint free cloth (no microfiber) and polish until it looks like new.

I guess your ponytail with some Turtle wax will be fine Johny.
