Blog Entry: With the Cape Cod cloth wrapped around the Q-Tip, I can hold it like a pencil, and it's easier to polish the center link without accidentally polishing the brushed outer links. In the photo of my two-tone Submariner below, you can see which part of the bracelet is polished, and which part is rolex brushed. Again, you only want to use the Cape Cod cloths on yikanjjexddxc polished surfacesNow, armed with your Cape Cod cloth wrapped in a Q-Tip, you're ready to begin actually polishing the center links. When you do the actual polishing, it's very important to use very careful, deliberate strokes that go with the grain of the metal. Go very slowly - especially your first time out. DO NOT use a circular rolex or cross stroke, and apply only a modest amount of pressure. The following close up photo demonstrates the direction you should use. If you look closely at the brushed links on either side of the polished link, you can actually see the grain of the louis vuitton handbags metal. You want to use brush strokes that go with the grain of the metal, not against. With most hair line scratches, it should only be necessary to polish for about a minute before you'll begin to notice the scratch has disappeared. Deeper scratches may however take longerThe other thing to keep in mind when you use the Cape Cod cloth is, you don't need to polish the entire bracelet - only polish areas with visible scratches. Why? What you're actually doing when you're polishing with the Cape louis vuitton handbags Cod cloth is removing metal from the bracelet. A scratch represents a very, very small indentation in the level, polished surface of the bracelet. By polishing it, you're essentially re-leveling the surface, so the indented portion, or the "scratch" is no longer visible relative to the rest of the surface. So while you could literally polish your bracelet scores, if not hundreds of times without removing enough metal to do any real, noticeable damage, there's no sense in polishing any portion of the bracelet that isn't scratched. I use the above illustrated Cape Cod polishing procedure on my Rolex watches with polished center links once every 3-4 months and it keeps them looking like brand new. The Submariner in the above photos is well over a year old and is worn by me 2-3 times per week, and I didn't even polish it prior to taking the photos for this article. Certainly the same product and techniques here wow power leveling could be used for non-Rolex watches, however, I do not recommend using Cape Cod cloths on gold plated surfacesAs good as Rolex watches are, occasionally they will need to go back to Rolex for service. In the case of my F Series 16600 Sea-Dweller, it simply needed a timing regulation performed - it ran 8-10 seconds fast for the entire year I've owned it. And over that 1 yr. period, my Sea-Dweller has picked up more than a few scratches in the bracelet - I've always heard that Rolex makes every watch sent to them "look like new" so I was looking forward to seeing if they'd polish my watch if I sent it in for warranty regulation work on the movement. So I decided I would send in my Rolex for factory warranty work, and document the process for posterity. My first step was to call Rolex USA in New York, NY. The NYC Rolex Service Center is the closet to where I am in Ohio, so I chose that one. I looked up the phone number on www.rolex.com and I asked for after sales support. I explained that my watch was running outside of chronometer specifications (no more than +6 seconds per day), and that I wished to send the watch in for warranty service. Regardless if you are having warranty work done, or want to have your out of warranty watch serviced by Rolex, I recommend you call first before sending them your watch. The representative agreed I should send the watch, and here are the specific instructions I was given and told to strictly follow: 1. Prepare a letter explaining the problem or the wow power leveling service desired - include the return shipping address and contact information. 2. Photocopy the warranty paperwork included with the watch (important to show the date of purchase and name on the warranty if you intend to get any service work covered free of charge under the warranty). ★★☆ Related Article ☆★★ http://www.yaom2.com/plus/view.php?aid=878 http://www.37hua.com//plus/view.php?aid=163 http://www.qlzone.com/plus/view.php?aid=94 http://www.ailiwed.com/plus/view.php?aid=3180 http://www.laoxuzhou.com/plus/view.php?aid=832 http://www.iluoxia.com/plus/view.php?aid=3862
