Can't you get it polished up professionally? I know my friend just had a Breitling shined up or about $16. Seems worth it when you're talking watches over $1000.
Yeah, I should say, all of my watches Seiko's are worth around $5-800 at retail, and most of them I didn't pay much more than $300 online. If I was dealing with a big ticket watch I wouldn't be doing homemade repairs on a bezel, where the grain is circular. With bands, where it is linear, no problem, I would re-brush a Rolex, but I believe you have to use a special type of lathe polisher for bezels to keep the grain consistent.
