Is that a Rolex?
Yes it is.
That's an expensive watch!, Why is it all scratched up?
No worries, it's got crisp edges!

Why can’t they make the sea dwellers like this anymore

I am a believer in" it is original only once" but I agree with tools, it couldn't hurt if is worn and scratches up. An original older watch that has light scratches I would leave alone, just a clean and lube.
