It all depends on the surface and if you slide the watch at all. Ice was a non issue with leaving hairlines on the case. I noticed the warmth of the watch actually melted a small spot into the ice when I picked it up.
Stone or concrete is another story and I wont set my watch down on it unless there is a pad underneath. After all these years I still hold my watch close over the counter when drying it from its Dawn dish soap washing. Too many forum reports of what a 4’ drop does to a crystal.

Beautiful pics as always. You have many talents and photoing your watches is only one of them. Your pics as always said are second to none. Thanks for what you contribute to the forum, It is always appreciated. Glad you did not lose that beauty,
