A recent thread spawned a discussion of refinishing Titanium watches. I have a little experience in the matter, others can hopefully add to it also. I purchased a scratch removal kit from Boston Watch Exchange. The kit has many different components for many different finishes. You can buy the various kits or individual pieces as needed. All the pieces can be found under watch scratch removal. The pictures will show the before and after using only the Titanum Brushed refinishing pad, (about ten bucks). The instructions are pretty straightforward, if anyone else has anything to add to this topic please do so.

pad ! Now your Orient is like new again. Thanks again for the ideas and pointers too !

Nice work Mark, you did a great job on that Bracelet. That Orient is a Ti model?

Yes, its all titanium. Here's the business end of the watch.
