An Omega dealer recommended a gentle rub over, in a single direction only, with one of those plastic green pan-scourers. This will give the clasp a lightly brushed finish. I was horrified when he mentioned it, but if you already have scratches on the clasp, I don't see there is much on an issue.

I use a small strip of Scotch "Magic" tape on my clasp; you know, the type that disappears when put it on paper etc.? This actually makes the clasp look like brushed steel, but protects against light scratching and you can take it off when you want the watch to look the business.

Regards
