bezel and bracelet
i recently bought my AP ROC s/s and experienced getting quite a few scratches on the bracelet and bezel during a night out..is it possible to remove these scratches? how so? some say polishing, some say buffing.. what is the best way to put it back to original? the scratches bother me as i love this piece.. once i fix em, i promise to use it on occasions I'm sure it won't get scratches.. i'll be extra careful..

Potentially looking pick up my first Breitling
Hi all,I have recently been looking I to adding another watch to my collection.I current have a vintage Rolex Date and an Omega Constellation which I love but both are on metal straps. I have been looking for something with a hide or rubber strap to have something different.I had seen a Hublot MDM which I liked which I put up in another part of the forum but I have came across this Breitling Blackbird.I am well aware that it is late 90s - early 00s however Iwas looking to see if anyone either has this watch or could give me some feedback on it?Any comments either positive or negative would be welcome.

Black Bay Noir ETA with all the Straps options
So my AD didn't have the BB ETA in the bracelet so I end up buying the leather strap version, I asked if they would sell me a bracelet and it must be faith bc they had one and sold me it, no discount. I later purchased the Everest rubber band and wore it for a good month, it was comfortable and have no complaints other than the band keeper was large, Everest sent me smaller keepers and all was good.I later saw some Instagram post of Erika's Original MN Strap, started to do some Youtubing and like the idea of how its worn on and fitted. Just like a NATO if one spring bar fails the watch head still dangle so you won't lose your watch. Another amazing feature about the strap is its like your Levis Jeans with 1% st reach material. Yes the strap has some stretch so it's super comfortable and moves with your wrist. Only complaint about the strap is you have to learn how to hook the metal piece to the lock the strap in place using one hand. Do it over and over again and it gets easier.
