I'm definitely going to do this as soon as I can figure out how to get around the fact that I have shiny gold non-brushed pieces in the center of each of my links (two tone blue submariner/oyster).

Thank you!

Nice info, though you could include the polishing of the polished surface

Just wondering.... how would you take the bracelet off (without breaking anything), since the end links don't have cut-out and the case has no side holes...?

What should be applied on the Scotch Brite pad for the touch up? Or just dry stroke it?
