··Hears dead people, not watch rotors.You should have kept the sub.

·Green Scotchbrite pads work excellent for clasps. Rub it gently in a straight line on the pad. Just 3 or 4 passes will do wonders. Again, gently.

·To coin a phrase "...that'll buff right out..."
I'd go for it.

·I wouldn't brush it. Scratches near Omega symbol looks too deep to be simply brushed out, the rest are scuffs you will get back in couple weeks. I also wouldn't use scouring pads on clasp with engraved writing because of it messes with edges.

Depends on price and if they told you it was scratched before buying. Easily fixed

·If you are going to wear daily then leave it as it is.
Wear and tear will happen and it does not matter!
Enjoy it like these watches are made to do, not to just sit pretty in a box wasted away.
You also now have a better watch and more money so well done also.

·I would do the same. Works like magic.
same here. I would brush out the scratches on that clasp. A pretty simple job and will make it look a lot better. I also have a Bergeon brushing pen to clean up the brushing on the bracelet links.

·I use the Bergeon medium satin-finish block. Works better than anything else quoted here.
You could have that bracelet refinished. I pay $150 for Bond bracelets, I think. Lots of fiddly work, but it's worth it when it's done.

·Omega charges 100 bucks just to buff it out warranty if need by, I would polish it to get it brand new and have it tell your stories going forward I think, iddk, or just use a scotch brike like it’s been said here before!! Can’t go wrong either way

No reason to take that to Omega, but a bracelet refinish is not something the ordinary joe can do. Heck, just get it serviced, the case and bracelet will be refinished for free if it's Omega-authorized service.

··Noob taxpayerI'd probably just leave it. Unless you are extremely careful with your watch, you're most likely going to mark it up again.

··history nerdLeave it as is. It's part of the story of the watch - not just any watch, but your watch, a unique piece that has a history all its own. One of the things I love to do is browse a great used bookstore, and pull a volume off the shelf to discover marginal notes written by a previous owner. That kind of thing makes the book unique, and the reading and ownership of it far more special than buying a brand new copy. The scratches are there for a reason. I'd respect that.

That's why I suggested a service that includes case and bracelet refinish. Or just get the bracelet refinished by someone who can do a good job of it.
