I usually "distress" my watches by banging them on door frames, or dropping them on the floor

I have lots of dangerous chemicals around the house (including bleach) but I've never intentionally spilled it on my watches. I must try that someday! Cazalea

Hi, I am also a regular in scatching my watches, I find it much easier to take, if I start with some intentional distress, everything afterwards is just fine. As they say, the first cut is the deepest... You should try for sure. C.
