Thanks for the advice, over the time, I learned things are meant to be used, if it gets really scratched you can always take it somewhere and have it polished!

Do the ceramic bezel get scratched over the time with regular use?

Thank you!

Enjoy your gmt. The pcls are scratch magnet. But the bezel is scratch proof..

The AD is a friend of mine, I can usually borrow watches (used ones) and use them for a couple days, if I like em I buy em, if not I simply turn em back in, thats exactly what happened with the Sub, altho I paid 7K for it I was able to trade it for the brand new GMT 2.

I will upload a couple pics later, I own a couple other watches as well.

Blessings.
Ah, that makes sense then. Excellent choice on the exchange!

No. I was responding to the question from Alex "where is the GMT hand in the 1st pic?"

I think you made a great choice.

I've banged mine against all kinds of things and not a mark. I'm sure you could scratch or crack it but it would take some work. The longer I have my watch, the more impressed I am with it.
