Since my Navi is still new, I do not have the need to use these cloths yet, but my 12+ year old TAG S/el needs a lot of TLC. My initial thoughts were to just bring it to my jeweler & see what they could do, but the dremel/cape cod route is interesting. From some of the posts above, an hour of Cape Cod'ing does lots of good. But I have years of neglect to polish out.

On the right..don't know if the wear/scratches come through here, but you get the idea.

Any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Well they're Hurlers so clearly not worth much time or effort :lol:

I think you'ld be surprised what the Cape Cods can do - give the watch a thorough clean first to get rid of surface dirt and then try the cloths - if you start on the back of the bracelet or somewhere similar that won't show then you have nothing to lose.

Definitely a golden opportunity for "before" and "after" pics!
