Yes, there sure is!

It is a metal polishing cloth called "Cape Cod".

Read about how to use it here:

http://www.rolexreferencepage.com/sc...scratches.html

And here is a more detailed tutorial at least picture-wise:

But be CAREFUL! I have said it before, and will say it again. The Cape Cad cloth can soon turn into a virtual "Shape Odd" cloth since if you polish TOO much, you end up actually wearing off metal and rounding off etched etc.

Glad I could help

BTW: Just to be on the safe side, I would try out the cloth on some other polished metal surface than your Rolex bracelet to get a feel of how the cloth works, or try it out first somewhere not too obvious on the bracelet
