cheers mate, just seen some,

Would you be willing to do a review with pictures of your Cos Rose Gold? You dont see a rose gold Cos very often at all. Love reading reviews and seeing pics of not so common pieces.

just got my SO Steelfish and searched cape cod cloths... are these recommended to be used on the brushed steel bracelets as well, or just the polished ones. Sorry for the newbie question but after getting it today I wanna keep it clean!!

Cape cod will polish brushed steel, you actually need scotchbrite pads - do a search for scotchbrite.

Hi,

I have just bought my new Chrono Colt II on a PROII braclet, and already no matter how carful I am is starting to get little swirls/scratches on it, Its making me feel really bad :cry:

I don't handle my watches badly, I love them, yet so many scratches ?

Any solutions anybody ?????? :bow:

I felt the same way when I got my first polished Breitling. The first scratch is always the "deepest"... I used capecods once, after that I learned to live with the scratches..IMHO the capecods is only a tempoary solution the problem, that will eventually "eat" up your watch. Learn how live with the scratches and enjoy the watch is the best way :lingsrock:

I'll say it again, hairlines aren't scratches - they are "patina" and only a pro can fully restore to like it was in the factory plastic.

When I played some ball - a long, long time ago in a galaxy far away - nothing looked better than a new glove. The first big scuff after the first use was a big deal. Once it was broken in and acquired a full patina, it was better -perfect actually.
