Rolex

That really hurts ….. gouged my relatively new platinum Daytona … sucky feeling ! ...  

nonetheless wear the battle scar proud

But it's something you can't avoid all the time... so don't worry too much!

It bugs you massively at first.. Then you either get used to it and acquire new war wounds or get it fixed and become neurotically careful

…. is a scratch. The second, the beginning of a beautiful patina!

I can feel the hurt

.

Wait until you see my aluminum Rimowa suitcase, a high end hotel dropped my almost pristine suitcase on their driveway! That suitcase was in near perfect condition after several years of usage.

BA sees to that very nicely... I am almost certain the baggage handlers get a kick out of battering them.

British Airways is indeed terrible in many regards! I can agree with you there! My carry on was in very good condition, until it suffered the drop at a very high end hotel chain. It had flown hundreds of thousands of miles in a few short years, but ironic... 

A year from now it won't matter, just wear it, love it, enjoy it.

Normally i view the case to hold it scratch free. A buckle is new to me. It sits under the wrist, so not in the spot light. But i can not accept bad sized pushpins, and pushpin noise of cheap pushpins. Genuine pushpins fits stiff. Omega for example.

It happens to all of us, enjoy your beautiful watch…..

You will polish that out I have my own polishing wheel. That will come out perfect.

PS I have a similar scar on my Platona too

Just tell yourself from now on, you no longer need to babysit it while you are wearing it. Enjoy the watch. Decades later, this is one of the characteristic of a vintage.

For the perspective check… guess i can it wear to the gym now 🙂 Have a great week everyone… Kam

I read a lot about it is ok to polish platinum, unlike gold. Is that true?
