Some people have posted that using green ScotchBrite pads and very carefully and gently polishing in ONE DIRECTION will remove minor scratches from the clasp. However, you must be EXTREMELY careful if you attempt to polish the bracelet yourself, since the bracelet has both brushed and polished finishes. You can easily ruin the highly polished finish if you rub just a little too far.
When you send your watch to Omega for routine servicing, they will disassemble the bracelet and polish it so that it will come back looking like new. There are two different polishing wheels that they use, one for brushed parts and one for polished parts. My local Omega retailer has a watchmaker that has both of these wheels, and my Bond SMP is there right now getting a full polishing and a new bezel. I don't trust myself to do a good job on such an expensive watch, so I'm leaving it to a professional. Just my two cents....
