Estimate to polish an SS Air-King ?

I'm looking at a recent Air-King that has a couple of scratches on the bracelet and back of the watch and also a few very light ones on the crystal and am intersted in what it would cost me to have it restored to looking like "new"?

Buffing out scratches would cost around $50-$70 including buffing the (acrylic) crystal. If the crystal has to be replaced then that could add anywhere from $50-$80. Post some pics. We'd love to see the AK.

I agree with Ron that sounds about right. Some ADs will do it for free but you must be careful it is not some anybody in the back room buffing out your watch on a buffer.
