Don't know how it happened and it's not huge, but it bugs me... Ding on the bezel at 22, not the insert but outer ring.

I hate to admit it, but yes it would bug me.

Yess · 22 January 2020, 01:12 PM

It's hard to see the ding - the first picture looks like you took it with a toaster...
To answer the question... any readily identifiable ding/scratch would annoy me at first. Then after I put another couple on there... each I would care less about. Till you have enough you don't care at all!

It also depends if this is a true daily wearer or something you want to keep pristine?

It wouldn’t bother me if I did it myself.

It would bother me if that’s how I got it from the AD...

This is what I feel. I'd be a bit upset at myself but then I'd just accept it.
I have a few dings on my Deepsea and just accept them because if I wanted to keep it new I'd have to not wear it. The only thing that bugs me is that I have no idea where they came from.

I would feel the same. Sooner or later we will get scratches and dings but that’s part of the wear and tear so just enjoy the watch :)

Chalk-it-up to the first of many. What bothers you is that it just-so-happened to have occurred so quickly vs. having occurred after 5 years of ownership ...

This is totally true, I never have watch accidents...

This. Adds character and shows it's been worn.

whattimeyougot · 22 January 2020, 01:13 PM

It’s meant to be worn. Don’t worry about it.

You’ll never be able to unsee it now.

TNT009 · 22 January 2020, 01:37 PM

Wouldn't bother me.. But if it bugs you, send her off to the spa!

kieselguhr · 22 January 2020, 01:41 PM

When I first see it, the sudden change from pristine to not so pristine will have me in a heightened awareness state for a moment. Then after a little time passes, not so pristine becomes the status quo and I move on. I am pretty sure it’s normal reaction to change....

Otherwise you are either a rock, or a liar.

cerendigit · 22 January 2020, 01:41 PM

If you made this post, it means it bothers *you*, and that's all that counts.

Take it to your nearest AD and see what they can, and at what cost, then make up your mind.

037 · 22 January 2020, 01:46 PM

Considering the gigantic hit it will take in resale...

...wait, nope, it still wouldn't bother me.

Jg422 · 22 January 2020, 01:49 PM

No, it would not bother me. It’s meant to be used.

scombs263 · 22 January 2020, 01:50 PM

Any ding would bug me. But it’s so small, I wouldn’t mess with it.

RHIII · 22 January 2020, 01:51 PM

It would bother me for a min - but I’d get over it. It’s bound to happen eventually

Agreed.

blown5.0 · 22 January 2020, 01:52 PM

Burn it! You can never wear that piece again! Just kidding (obviously). There will be many more to come. The piece will only look better with more dings.

zenlee · 22 January 2020, 01:53 PM

Won't bother me if I get at MSRP
Different story if from grey

Brian Page · 22 January 2020, 01:54 PM

Yeah sorry for the poor pictures, thought I would throw this out to the masses for fun. I hate it when I do something like this to my own watch. Going to live with it, it's a character mark now. I hate dings more than scratches... oh well... love my watch.. :)

FSUGeoff · 22 January 2020, 01:56 PM

I had something like that on the JC DeepSea I purchased second hand, bothered me at first, but I got over it. Done worse to it myself now and don't think twice anymore.

schoolboy · 22 January 2020, 02:23 PM

No not really. If anything it is a mark that it is your own.

Idk why, but I like the wear and tear on things that comes with age.

Even shoes.

So I wouldn’t mind much.

envuks · 22 January 2020, 02:25 PM

Definitely would bother me at first, but eventually you just get over it and move one. I remember when I accidentally hit one of my new watches against brick corner while visiting my parents and was upset for a bit, but that's life. LOL. Now that imperfection adds character and story :)
