Oh no...first scratch after exactly 2 months of ownership!
I know, I know...it's the size of a school bus, I should probably just get a new watch.....lol. Not bad I guess for a daily worn watch. No idea what I hit! Since the watch is still so perfect otherwise, I think I might have the Jeweler at my AD look at it when I go there to pick up my Rootbeer, whenever that will be...
The first one is always the worst! Please don't laugh, I know it's tiny....

Scratched mine at two weeks on the grill. Why was I reaching inside the grill with it? Great question. It’s so small too. First cuts the deepest tho!
Would an AD be able to polish that out easily? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

We will see, no idea as of yet when my Rootbeer comes in. My AD is 2 hours away, so I am not driving up there for that little scratch. They are a Jewelry store, not a boutique, so they have the tools to address this with.

We’ve all been there. Just be glad it was on the bracelet instead of a ding on the case.

Scratched mine within the first few weeks lol. Painful but after some thoughts I'm happy to wear my Rolex everyday anyway :)

Not too bad at all. Looks like a Sunshine cloth would even take care of that if it bugs you.

First one always hurts. I put a scratch on the clasp of my DJ41 within 30 minutes the first day I wore it to work and I sit at a desk, lol!!

Oh well. It happens. If you headed to the AD to pick up your root beer, might as well have them polish out that scratch while you are there.
