I have an unerring ability to scratch my watch face. I was putting on my watch this morning, and noticed a big scratch from top to bottom across the watch face. How the heck did that happen? When did it happen? Surely I would have noticed this when I put on my watch yesterday morning, so did this happen yesterday? When exactly – surely I would have noticed? I think the same thing has happened with my last 2 watches – at some point they got scratched up, but I don’t think I noticed the scratch when it happened. Very frustrating – so what to do? First thought was to replace the watch. But that seems excessive, can I fix the scratch? A quick google search, and it suggests toothpaste could be used to polish out the scratch. OK, whatever – nothing to lose, so I gave it a go. And lo and behold, the toothpaste didn’t seem to make a jot of difference and the scratch is still there. Well that just seemed stupid and a remarkable waste of time. Can I replace just the watch face? Not sure how easy that would be, would probably need to go to a local watch repair shop. Too much hassle – it’s a cheap watch (and from checking Amazon, still cheap), and I think it’s easier to just buy a replacement.
