As to "taking the time to post in a thread." Isn't that what we're all here for?

There have been plenty of comments in the past and even in this thread, that stretch beyond an eye roll. As I mentioned I don't mind a little sarcasm and humor, especially when it happens to answer the original question. All in good fun.

I'm just tired of reading judgmental and mean spirited comments from those that are supposed to be role models around here.

Duly noted. I don’t consider myself a watch snob at all but at first thought the OP’s post was frightfully lacking in basic common sense but upon reflection, can understand his question.

If I didn’t know that a modern Rolex had a sapphire crystal and knew that said crystals are virtually impervious to micro scratches, I may pose the same question so as to avoid damaging my expensive new watch.

I take back my belittling commentary about all future generations lack of common sense.

Of a side note, some of the replies have been very funny.

Edit** Sorry, I mean Sapphire Crystal***

Clean same way you might wipe a finger smudge or dust from any glass or screen. Any soft cloth such as an item of clothing you may have to hand.
Saphire crystal really doesn’t scratch easily at all. It tends to shatter if knocked inappropriately rather than scratch.
