Tiny scratches on my AW6 - what to do ?

[deckard666]

Just back from a dog walk and noticed some tiny almost invisible scratches on bottom right of screen - Pretty much imperceptible really unless under a super strong light but is there any way to "buff" them out ? I am so annoyed at myself.

So now have just ordered this -

Is that the aluminium version ?

 

[deckard666]

yeah

This is why I get the stainless steel versions with sapphire crystal.

I'm not aware of any way to buff this out, and I caution you that attempts to do so might make things worse.

Are there some on the top too? Oh no, how did this happen? Sorry, bummer.

Try putting a watch screen protector on, and that will help hide the current scratches and prevent new ones.

I use this minimalist case with glass screen protector when I am at work.

Nothing you can do except be more careful with it, it’s the nature of the screen, it does scratch. I feel for you because it’s fairly new

It’s the reason why all my watches have a Sapphire glass.

Got apple care? If it bothers you maybe try and get it replaced

It happens with the aluminum screens. No way to remove those and not much you can do about not scratching the screen. The ion-X glass is very scratchable. If it bothers you I'd definitely get a screen protector. It will protect it from further scratches but also hide the ones that you've already developed.

You’re not gonna like what I have to say, but I would just deal with it and leave it alone. It’s just a smart watch, the Ion-X Glass has a long history of scratching easily, and I would just leave it ‘as is’. It’s part of owning/wearing a watch, that minor damage is inevitable.
