We all know that a watch is a jewel that makes the wearer more classy and elegant. This is why you wear it regularly to be at your best when you go out of the house, for example to work, to church or to a meeting. Sometimes, we can say that this jewel has become a part of us that we can no longer part with. However, it is important to know that the dial of the watch can get scratched over time. If there are a lot of scratches on the dial, you can resort to a new purchase, but if you opt for minimalism, you can find tricks to remove them yourself.
How do you remove scratches?
To do so, you need to take a soft cloth and wrap it around your finger. Make sure that the watch is facing a light so that the scratches are clearly visible. After this, the product concerned is applied to the surface by rubbing gently after a few minutes. Do not overdo it during cleaning, because if you are not careful, the damage can be aggravated. Therefore, for more or less deep scratches, one cannot expect too much a total disappearance of the scratches but rather their attenuation. However, if you have the means to see a jeweller, this is also a good solution.
