First I placed the watch with part of the cloth through the bracelet so it doesn’t move around.

Then I added a dab of toothpaste on the dry face and in a clockwise rotation I simply rubbed the paste on the face for about 3min.

Then I added some more paste and with a clean part of the cloth did it again.

The scratch was quite deep so I figured it wouldn’t do very well….

But! It did quite well!

You can feel a bit of a scratch if you’re looking for it but at a glance, it’s gone.

I’m pretty impressed. I think if I did it again with the same process I could get it all out.

Now, would it work on sapphire? I can’t say but for hardlex or acrylic, certainly.
