Product Description

THE PROBLEM Plastic watch crystals scratch very easily with the result that they soon look unattractive. Replacement of the crystal is not normally possible, especially where watches have plastic cases. THE SOLUTION Watch owners the world over suffer from this sort of problem, but now polyWatch, a new type of special-purpose polishing paste, offers them an extraordinarily simple solution. For the first time, consumers can remove scratches rapidly and cheaply from their plastic watch crystal by carrying out an easy-to-follow "do-it-yourself" procedure. Apply polyWatch to the watch crystal. Polish the scratched areas for 2-3 minutes with great pressure at a right angle to the scratches, using a piece of cotton wool. Deep scratches need to be treated more than once. Finally, remove any remaining polyWatch with a cloth. The tube contents of 5 ml is sufficient for approximately 10 uses. The plastic glass is very slightly dissolved and ground down by tiny abrasive particles. The edges of the scratch marks are then smoothed off and the cracks filled in with some of the original plastic from the watch crystal.

First time user - Works just like it should.
I have a watch or two with plastic/acrylic/etc "crystals" in them that were really scratched up. A simple a cost friendly fix was to get some PolyWatch that I've heard about from various sources.For this review I used an older Seiko automatic that I recently purchased off of eBay for cheap. The glass or "crystal" was really scratched up so I thought it a perfect candidate.After receiving the tube, I sat down with some Q-tips and paper towels on a desk. I set the watch down and squeezed some on and buffed with a Q-tip/cotton swab for 3-5 minutes (re-applying a little paste every minute or so).After that first session It was hard to tell if it had worked, but the watch in question was pretty badly scratched and dinged up so I went another 5-10 mins. After that I could definitely tell a difference - the deep gouges and scratches were much less noticeable and the dial more visible. I went another 5-7 minutes before calling it a night and was surprised at the before/after photo comparison.I'd say in total I buffed this 1 watch crystal for about 20 minutes, re-applying paste often. I'd guess I used about 1/4 of the amount in the tube. I will say, the tube is not 100% full from the start - Holding it up to a light you can see about 60% of it contained product. For the higher cost for such a small tube, consideration should be given to how much is used and on what projects. It IS cheaper and less hassle than replacing the crystal though.PROS:- It works. May take several coats and some elbow grease to really get deep scratches and dings out.- Comes with nice little fabric swab that seemed to work well with the paste.- Cheaper than replacing the crystal.CONS:- Small tube for how much it costs. Expect 2-4 good uses from this 1 tube for deeply scratched crystals.- Tube comes filled with a lot of air - package size can be misleading to how much content is inside.*Photo attached shows "Before" photos on Left side, "After" photos on Right side. Watch has a few spots and dust specks inside crystal so some of that isn't the crystal.

5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible!! Worth every penny.
Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2015
I have a 1969 Rolex. This has an acrylic crystal, not a sapphire crystal. I've owned it for 25 years, and it had quite a few scratches. One was fairly deep. The cost to replace the crystal is hundreds of dollars. I lived with the scratches for years until I found this product. The product worked like magic.

I used a microfiber cloth and put a drop on the watch face. I polished the watch face for 2-3 minutes. I then put another drop on and repeated the procedure. I could see the light scratches being removed, but the deep one was still there. After 4-5 drops, and about 15 minutes of polishing, every scratch was gone! I was stunned. My crystal now looks brand new. Wow.

Highly recommend. It's not magical, and did take 15 minutes of polishing, but I know have a new looking watching.
