I've seen a Citizen AT2100-09E for sale with a scratched crystal.
How hard are these crystals? Easy enough to polish out or is it quite hard?

Depending on how deep the scratch, Polywatch will sort most out.

Polywatch only works on Acrylic crystals.

Don't think that Citizen is Acrylic is it?

I've no idea what they are. Only buying it if it's cheap & can have a good chance of getting most of it out.

Polywatch is for acrylic crystals only, don't know what you watch has, but if acrylic use a fine sand paper to remove the scratches then the polywatch.
I've never been able to effectively remove scratches and polish a mineral crystal by sanding and then polishing with diamond paste, but others have.
Easier just to change the crystal then.

Just checked.
Its mineral glass.

Basic replacements cost around £5 to £10

Ok thanks all. I think I'll leave it on EBay.

These citizens are a bit hit and miss with sizes for replacement crystal - they can be tricky sizes like 38.6 etc- they are pence on cousins though if you can find the right size
You'll find that hard to polish out- looks like it's got some chips at the top too
