Watch polishing
CloseWatch polishing in Bahrain
Cases and bracelets polished at our shop in Yateem Centre, Manama, with one aim: the finish the maker gave the watch.
No prices are quoted before we have seen the piece. We reply within 24 hours.
What good polishing means
A watch case is rarely one finish. Most combine brushed surfaces with mirror-polished ones, and sharp lines where the two meet. Careless polishing rounds those lines and blurs every surface into one shine.
We work surface by surface: brushed where it was brushed, polished where it was polished, and the lines of the case kept.
What we polish
Cases and bracelets, including links and clasps. Polishing can be done on its own or together with a service.
Before any work begins
Polishing takes away a little metal every time, so it is worth doing well and not too often. Bring the watch in, or send photographs on WhatsApp, and we will tell you plainly what polishing will achieve on your piece and what it will cost. Nothing is started until you agree.
Before and after
One steel watch, polished at our shop in Yateem Centre. Each pair shows the same part before and after.
Bracelet links
Scratches removed and the links refinished to an even brushed surface.


Lug and bevel
The nick on the bevel is gone, and the line between brushed and polished is sharp again.


Bracelet, opposite end
Deep scratches and a gouge on the outer link, polished out.


Clasp
Heavy scratching removed: a mirror-polished centre with brushed sides.


Case back
Scratches cleared from the case back, the underside of the case and the lug ends.


Case flank
The polished flank is mirror-clean, and the marks on the lug are gone.


Crown guard
Nicks beside the crown removed, and the edges of the crown guard crisp again.


Questions
How long does polishing take?
Usually 2 to 3 days. If the watch needs more work, or a part has to be ordered, we tell you the date before we start.
Will polishing remove every scratch?
Light scratches usually polish out. A deep mark may only be softened, because removing it completely would take too much metal. We tell you which before we start.
Do you polish watches bought elsewhere?
Yes, wherever the watch came from.
