Shaving watches

No, not the pubes they come with...

 

What do you use to file/round off the sharp edges on watch bracelets and buckles? I used to use sandpaper but there should be a more efficient and better way. I'm not using a Dremel because I'm sure the first time I try, the bit will wander and scratch the heck out of everything else.

My billable time is far too high to be polishing bracelets and buckles. I'll gladly pay more for a Chinese rubdown, heh... But then again, these are "just" midrange reps.

Emery board, dremel with varied bits, sandpaper. Emery boards come in a several types, the ones for acrylic nails are very good. The emery blocks used in manicures are also excellent and the sides have different grits on the same block.

Sliced myself open on an IWC case the other day, guess I should attempt an emery boarding!

Get this attachment and yes cheap versions of the dremel exist with these for around 40 bucks.

MrsPickles nail buffer manicure thingy, 2 course sandpaper and 4 grades of buffing, works a treat for getting scratches out too.
