I read from numerous reports that ceramic, while indeed has much stronger scratch-proof property than steel, is actually a lot more brittle as well. Unfortunately, this downside is not something usually discussed when it comes to this material. I do recall seeing another post here with a cracked Cer
When I was 20, I was happy to get a Swatch. The fact that you're on to ALS at your age, lots of respect mixed with envy.
