It's just a watch and it definitely won't be the last scar if you continue to wear it, but the memories you accumulate with it will be priceless. My fur buddy makes me happier than any of my material possessions.

Look at it this way, when you eventually get a dent, and it WILL happen, that is the way to do it. Beats dropping it yourself.

Instead of feeling bad, you now have a memory.

Plus that dog is just too cute.

A jealous dog! Need more attention than you have given to your watch.

Agree.

Dents and dings always look worse when they first occur; however, after a few days, somehow blend in to the watch and you’ll barely notice it.

Lovely dog,,
My brand new dj lasted five days before our Labrador puppy put a very nice and noticible
scratch on the clasp,
When I look at it now,,reminds me of our naughty puppy and makes me smile,,,
Another four and half years and the service will make it brand new,

When your pooch is long gone you'll be happy he dented that lug.
I agree with this, OP. One day, you'll look at that lug when the dog is gone & smile. You'll remember being briefly pissed off, then having a beer & remembering that everything in life is relative.

It's a battle scar and a reminder of your pooch. The watch will far out live your pup (unfortunately). Consider it a forever reminder of his presence in you life. Lovely watch and dog!!!

Very considerate of the dog to put the damage on the under side of the lug.

When your dog isn't with you anymore, you'll always remember them for this battle scar. I wouldn't worry about it, cherish the time you have sir!

Good thing you didn’t leave out homework.

But seriously, glad you’re keeping perspective and a positive outlook.

As frustrating as that is now, if it were me, that ding would make me smile 15-20 years down the road whenever I would see it. I subtle reminder of your rambunctious best friend!

Some how my dog “the little devil” managed to climb on the chair and pull the towel where the watch was on. It took me less then 1 minute to go up and down.

The dent is on the bottom of the top right lug. Not really noticeable. But unfortunately is there.

Not planing on doing anything right now as I see it as a battle scar. I’m just going to wear the hell of it and enjoy. The first dent you never forget...ahah





The little Devil “Chico”...ahah



Cheers to Dents...

Sorry about the accident. It’s really good to see a person actually not care about a small dent or scratch on a watch. Plus you really can’t me mad at your puppy...
