Friendly reminder to check your watch case

I was cleaning my SD today; I noticed after I removed the band from the case and lugs that the band has been rubbing on my serial number, there is a fine line going across the serial number which in time will make the serial number not legible.

Being somewhat annoyed by this I began breaking down all my Rolex watches I had at the house. I have a grey/ some what black TOG from 2004 it has the same issue.

As far as I can see there are several possible issues with a non-legible serial number. If the watch gets lost or stolen there is no way of getting it back or proving that this watch is mine. Second I wonder what the RSCs will do without a serial number if they will even service a watch they can’t track. The new RCB will have the serial number at the six hour marker most of my current Rolex watches do not have this feature.

Has anyone else had this issue with any of their Rolex watches? I will post a photo later today after I have had some sleep; I guess this has bothered me all day.
