1500 grit wet and dry is the most effective way I've found. It feels like you're scratching the hell out of the crystal when doing it, but the only thing harder than sapphire is diamond and so it doesn't leave a mark. Just be careful to mask the bezel if you can't remove the crystal first.

I don't have the bottle to try that - I managed to scratch a sapphire crystal (no external AR coating - the actual sapphire) by catching it on a 'granite' (Larvikite) worktop. There's no way there's any diamond in that stuff, but it still managed to scratch the crystal, so...

Introduce velocity and a softer material will still scratch sapphire, but if your watch could talk it would be saying "yeah, but you should see the state of the other guy."

Chortle! Yep - I can live with the damage, it's small and inconspicuous, and part of me prefers a bit of a lived-in look

Here is a link to a video I did showing how to remove the AR

The bracelet on my son's Sinn watch is getting too tight on him so I'm going to need to add a link.
A quick search seems to indicate the screws are a bit of a bugger to remove.
Any experience with these and tips. Generally for my Rolex bracelets some boiling water does the trick so not sure if the same with the Sinn bracelet.
