What sort of crystal is it?

Sapphire? Glass? Plastic?

If it's plastic (Omega Speedmaster) then use somthing called Polywatch applied and rubbed in with cotton wool. For glass/sapphire etc follow other advice above.

Sorry, I should have said "Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch " wink

Non moon watch versions can come fitted with Sapphire front and display back. Real Moonwatch spec has Hesalite (sp?) and steel back.
