Apple Watch Case Scratching Easily

Mine had some minor scratches in it after a weeks use. This is quite common on watches and hard to prevent... I sometimes forget i have it on my wrist and knock it into something. My stainless Tissot with sapphire crystal has scratches in it too. believe it uses the same grade 316 stainless. I buffed out the scratches on my Apple Watch and Tissot with a metal grade polish (easily obtainable from a hardware, car parts, or marine store). Be careful to use a minimal amount of the polish on a microfiber cloth and rub as hard and long as needed. Do not get any polish in the speaker or microphone ports or in the gaps around the crown and button! Hope this helps.

Yes, the stainless steel model scratches like ****, unlike most other stainless steel watches. the Aluminum ones are a bit harder to scratch though. We have 6 Stainless Steel ones in the family but only one aluminum one and while all the stainless steel ones have all scratched, the aluminum one seems fine.

As recommended by CNET, this works and is fantastic. I got a few scuffs on my Apple Watch and was miserable. Removed the scratches in one minute. Looks brand new again.

It's 316L stainless steel, which is on the soft side. Yes, it scratches, that's normal for 316L, on the positive side, it's relatively easy to buff.
