Unless you keep in the safe at all times, this is unavoidable.. The first cut is the deepest.

I remember within the first week of wearing my 116719 BLRO , I bumped it against a water tap and made a ding on the bezel.. It annoyed the hell out of me for a week or so then I got used to it and acquired more scrapes and bumps.. 


In winter as we wear long sleeves it tends to happen less, but the swarms seasons are the danger zone..

Enjoy  your watch and remember that it is sharing a journey with you..

I like the watch to be scratch free but that is not healthy

If it happens, it happens. Life is way too short to contemplate on it afterwards. It is a piece of metal that is being used.

Scratches used to really bother me.

But luckily I’ve started caring less and it’s tremendously more enjoyable now wearing/enjoying!

Looks perfect.

Not been polished yet, a number of scratches and the bracelet in particular but I’m past worrying! I just enjoy it for what history it brings with it! ...  

Some people aren’t bothered by scratches...
