polishing Longines Titanium watch cases


Recommended Posts

My Ti vhp case and bracelet are a matte grey. So If the case sides get light surface scratches, can they be polished or rubbed out. The watch and bracelet are very light weight so I'm thinking it is solid titanium and not a Ti coating. Is that correct?

Thanks,

henryr

I think it would be ok to polish it. The dial says ti for titanium. It will turn a lighter grey for a few hours/days but then will quickly oxidize back to the normal grey you see now..

    • Yep, i pulled that up as well when i was looking,  there is definitely parts out there if you are prepared to go out and find them.  I watched that video years ago, I'm not so sure about probing the coil like that. If you are going to touch the coil use the side of the probe or at least shape a nice round end to it.

    • Hi. In the picture not only does it depict that the wheel is bent but also the plate or is that due to th angle of the picture.  Already received very good advise so I will butt out.
