I've got a Casio Oceanus ocw-s100-1ajf and ive had it for a while. Along the way its gotten its fair share of scratches on the titanium... whats the best way to get rid of them?
 
Green Scotchbrite pad. But you have to polish the whole thing to the same finish or it'll look off. Tape off the crystal though.

The abrasive pad will give an all around matte ti finish. If you want the mirror polish back you'll need to use power tools or find a bored dentist.
 
Maybe grab a small jar of Birchwood Casey's Aluminum Black. I bought a used J-frame with the charcoal colored ti-cyclinder, and it had a good sized high-spot on it jumping out. For whatever reason, the stuff darkened it back to match nearly instantly, and I was well-pleased.
 
If it is waterproof, run it under water and use a brillo/sos soap pad. The steel wool makes finer "scratches" than the scotchbrite. Scotchbrite will definitely do the job but it is some sort of fiberglass material and is coarse enough to cut into stainless steel. Titanium is soft so the scotchbrite will give it a heavy brush finish; unless that is what you are looking for.

If you are happy with the brillo/sos finish you could leave it there or you could polish it further with some Mother's Mag wheel polish. Or, if you want to get something more refined than mag wheel polish look into a Cape Cod cloth.

After that it should almost look new.
