This little pin is dangerous! After a brisk night walking with my hands in pocket, I was greeted by these little scratches. I keep my things pristine (always PPF my cars), so this was a slap to the face on week two of ownership.

Has this happened to anyone else? If not - be warned!

Bstewart · 16 July 2022, 05:27 AM

Nope, but last night was a beautiful night in Chicago for a walk! We saw a concert in West Town and walked home to River North, great evening!

Sounds like a major law suit!

The horror.

RHJ · 16 July 2022, 05:45 AM

I would consider suicide

DTap · 16 July 2022, 05:46 AM

I’m always on the lookout for pants pockets.

A partners diamond ring is more dangerous

This!

Also the buckles and chain on their bags! That’s why I almost always walk on the left side, it minimizes chance of impact. lol

I shan’t be wearing pants again after reading about this horror show

I was just thinking the same thing!

I only wear a Rolex and nothing else, but I do worry about scratches from body hair.

So that's where we get the term "hairline scratches..."

I don't have any body hair

EagleBear · 16 July 2022, 06:08 AM

Ouch! Man that had to hurt more than a mule kicking you in the family jewels… jeans and luxury watches don’t mix filed to memory.
Thanks for the heads up I will bubble wrap them if I ever wear a pair jeans again. All kidding aside though you really couldn’t feel the pants rivet hitting the watch?

There may have been a few cocktails involved…

I feel inclined to get this corrected. It’s just such an awkward pattern and location. Quick and easy polish?

Leave it.

S’portEye · 16 July 2022, 06:19 AM

I would expect that to polish out very well.

hutch300 · 16 July 2022, 06:21 AM

Easy fix but I'd leave it. Watches get used - over time its less noticeable

RogerOP · 16 July 2022, 06:22 AM

Cape cod cloths.

It’s the side of the clasp anyway, no one will see it. Mine are all chewed up except my DJ as I only wear it on special occasions.

goldfixer21 · 16 July 2022, 07:03 AM

It's ruined now, might as well throw it away. I can't believe you actually wear that, it should be hidden in a bank vault.

Auto16610 · 16 July 2022, 07:25 AM

Thanks for the heads up. That would upset me as well. And such new a watch. Oh well. First of many.

Geckobros · 16 July 2022, 08:15 AM

I wouldn't mess with it. There will be more to come.

HideMyWalletPlease · 16 July 2022, 08:48 AM

I only wear microfiber body suits with no zippers or buttons.

Ksbi · 16 July 2022, 09:04 AM

I would have been really upset if it happened to me

The major reason I stopped wearing Levi’s 501s & now wear khaki pants

douglasf13 · 16 July 2022, 09:10 AM

Someone warn Rob Halford.

mountainjogger · 16 July 2022, 09:11 AM

I would leave it.

CarlOver · 16 July 2022, 09:48 AM

Soft pants only buddy. No rivets or extraneous metal is allowed.
