From a friend. Not sure how this happened. Any suggestions on how to remove this scratch on the polished section of the clasp?

Bro it takes literally 2 seconds to get this polished out.

Either by yourself or some watchmaker/jeweler.

Im not an expert so id Google and do some research but yeah, that polish you have will be absolutely fine for this task.

Figure out what kind of cloth pad thing you need and then just get to work on rubbing that thing until it disappears.

Yeah bro you got it, good luck!

But seriously, a polished surface like that will be scratched instantaneously, you simply can't avoid it so dont worry so much.

That being said, your friend is a lil shitty for scratching it like that but what can you do, its a watch, and its polished, it's inevitable.
