Microlon Titanium Sponge Info From Omega

Just to make my earlier posts complete on the Titanium maintainance Sponge I received from my jeweler I inquired from Omega its origin and whether there is any relationship to the "Microlon" cloth in Derek's faq. Here's the answer (I attached in my mail to Omega a picture of my sponge):

"Dear Andreas,
Further to your new e-mail and attachment, which we thank you for, we are
glad to let you know ...... (I had a few more questions)......
Regarding the sponge you have, we inform you that it is one of the "Microlon" sponges used to give a manual satin finish to a watch. However,
we recommend that a qualified OMEGA watchmaker takes care of this 'refurbishment' as it is a very delicate job.

Hoping that this answers your concern, we remain,
With our best regards
OMEGA Ltd
Catherine Dubois
Customer Service"

Cheers,
Andreas
