I can’t imagine why people would get upset? Looks like it’s being used in its element!

I posted a similar thread before and there was not much traction unfortunately.
I rather like seeing other peoples worn watches with signs of use rather than pictures of perfect new condition watches which is what most people post on here. I think times are changing watches are babied too much nowadays |

They are meant to be worn and enjoyed. Scratches, dents are inevitable no matter how anyone babied them. Simply wiping with proper cloth can scratch polished surface. I’ve learned to accept it.

Ahhh yes! I love seeing stuff like this more than the usual "oh I got a scratch on my Rolex".

Almost forgot about this one... I met the owner of this awesome sub on a flight a few months back. His mother bought it for him in 1971. He wears it every day. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Love this thread and I agree wholeheartedly that work watches are so much better to look at!
Would love to hear the stories on how some of these scratches were obtained! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |
