I just bought a Series 9 stainless steel silver just yesterday and in an hour I noticed small micro scratches here and there and I literally have no idea how it happened, anyways not a big deal as I can get it off with this polishing method so I’m cool. But overall the stainless steel model looks way much better and classy/premium than the aluminum frame which gives a toy kinda look.
Is it possible to prevent scratches in the first place so you can always have a shiny watch while not having to polish too much ? I recently bought a Series 8 and already got microscratches on it on the same day. I wonder where those come from as I‘ve been handling it really carefully, is it just the rubbing on fabric like long sleeves worn over the watch ?
Not really as it depends on the material. Personally I am not careful with my watch at all, just wear it and if it gets to bad, polish it. Stainless steel is at least a lot better than aluminium.

@@RichardMathew277 I got a series 9 and with the daily small hits it got a little scratch at the right top… I got a little upset but that’s it… if I worry about those things, I will never use it
Probably not, the stainless steel colored models have a coating on the steel. You will probably rub the coating off using this technique, but if you apply it very gently it might remove some scratches without damaging the coating. Try at your own risk.
But after 2-3 months, after all, all these scratches will come back and clean it again ??? yeah fuck it! sorry for being rude! I do not have a claim to you, but to the clock! This is a beauty that needs to be cleaned! I also have a choice to buy stainless or aluminum series 8 and I also want the gold version but I can’t polish it with gold! and it’s good that I thought a little because if you polish the golden version, the color will be removed and then it will be shit! I don't like silver! so I'll probably take an aluminum one and glue a thin film on the screen! yes, it will be a little bit not beautiful, but I will get a non-scratching device! but I did not expect that the stainless steel will scratch so much!
I polish mine about every year, my wife has a gold one and never polished it. I think the gold one might be less prone to scratches due to the gold coating. Don’t sweat it.

hey do you know if you polish the graphite ss. if that coating comes off its just the silver ss underneath corret?
Correct 👍
Cool idea to put a film on the screen.
I, by the way, slightly scratched the sapphire glass on the bend, thought it was impossible)
Sapphire can be scratches by diamonds. Also, some people doubt Apple is using level 9 sapphire.

@@F4stFr3ddy So are those microscratches avoidable on stainless steel ?
Pretty much it will always scratch.

If i rub for long time can it damage my ss silver??
Nope as it’s 100% stainless steel without a coating. The longer you go, the better it will look.
Will it work on black apple watch?
Probably not, the stainless steel colored models have a coating on the steel. You will probably rub the coating off using this technique, but if you apply it very gently it might remove some scratches without damaging the coating. Try at your own risk.

I still see scratches
If you’re not pleased with the result, just continue for another 5 minutes.
