Tell the person we will have to agree to disagree (don't mention he/she is wrong and you are correct). Explain to this person how much their friendship means to you and apologize for arguing (apologizing to someone doesn't mean you are admitting to being wrong). Then suggest that you both forgive each other, don't bring the issue up again and move forward.

Well, if giving in to someone who thinks (s)he is right is your M.O., that's probably what you will end up doing.
Conceding (s)he is right and you are wrong (again), contritely, humbly, maybe even saying you don't know how you could have been so stupid as to disagree with someone who is always right, should do the trick.
Of course, there will still be a couple of days while (s)he lords it over you, just to rub it in.
That's how you make peace with someone who thinks (s)he is right.
If you are truly convicted with your belief, then you don't bother acquiescing to the other person, unless that relationship is more important than your personal integrity. Go about your business, don't offer communication opportunities, and pretty soon, that person could be out of your life. You have been through this before today.
While it is always nicer to get along with people, when you find yourself constantly compromising your values and beliefs, maybe it's nicer to check out of that relationship. It's not as hard as it sounds, says the voice of experience.

A vintage link watch does not have to be unpolished to be excellent or worthy of your time and money. There are plenty of incredible watches that still have visible hallmarks noticeable lug link bevels and shapely cases despite having gotten a small touch-up 40 or 50 years ago. Sure all things being equal an unpolished watch is usually preferable but don't feel like you can't buy something if the seller says link it's been lightly polished.
