Reflection of light
So far, no dings on this piece (i hope it never happens), but some observations:
1) The gold bezel catches hairline scratches quite easily

The screw at 11 o clock, at the bottom, already nicked or just the reflection of light? Looks great. How is the bracelet, no stretch? Does AP offer a new bracelet as well if needed and bezel?
