Show us your nicks, dings and scratches
With all these beautiful snaps of our beloved watches we share with each other there must be some less desirable pics of every day wear, tear and damage.
Let's see how bruised some of your watches are.. Currently on an iPod but will post some pics of a bezel insert change gone wrong a bit later

My Pam 312.
Big watches are like magnets to all kind of knocks. It was a month old when i discovered 3 small dings. I almost cried  Here is a pic through a loop. It looks like Grand canyon to my eyes To be honest i get used to it, but i am not happy every time that i "discover" them again

Right now all I have are normal wear and tear scratches on the clasp and minor rub marks. Before I had it serviced it had quite a few more. That's the great thing about having them serviced -- they come back looking like new.

On the 168000, keep in mind it's a 23 year old watch! Couldn't really find much more else to photograph, rest of the stuff was simply too small to capture properly on camera.
