Haha I tried to take a picture after seeing somebody else post about their watch and their dog. I put it on my dog's head and turned around for what must have been a fraction of a second and heard a big clunk.

After a few days, it will blend in, and you won’t even notice it is there.

It's only new once. Guess it's no longer new. Never really gets any easier. Life's full of these. Cars, watches, kids. Anything bought new is a potential victim.

That sucks. I thought I would get over the dings and scratches after a while but it still bothers me when I see them. Doesn't hurt as much as the day it happened but still, it sucks.

It is true that the first dings hurt, but now your watch is personalized and has a unique history to go along with it.
