Polishing your watch constantly is also not a wise thing to do. Even if you use a soft cloth, you actually risk making scratches (NEW ones!) by just polishing your watch. The mixture of dust/body fat and other particles can easily acts as "sandpaper" when you let a cloth slide over the surface of the watch.
Using for example Cape Cod all the time is also not a good thing since this will result in material loss.
Best thing, IMHO, is leaving the scratches alone and have them polished out every 5th. year at RSC service.
