11610 and 116610 bezel pearls a worry?

[knoffie]

I was ready to pull the trigger on a LNIB 116610 Sub C but on a closer look I discovered for the first time the differences in the bezel pearl on the C Sub from the 11610 bezel The ceramic bezel has a raised pearl with a white gold surround which is raised slightly above the bezel and look slike it has bee glued on to the triangle. while the 11610 hasthe pearl flat on the bezel with the pearl sunk into the flat surround its self. My concern is that the Sub C pearl looks to be quite vulnerable and easily either knocked off or damaged which would ( I assume) be a costly replacement compared with the aluminium, bezel on the earlier Sub. Any thoughts? Any experiences? I dont want to make a mistake or set myself up for an expensive repair.
What do owners of the Sub C think ?
