Let’s see your case backs

I wonder if your bracelet scratches the case back, and what do you do about it (or don’t care)?

Both my Rolexes are on rubber bands so these avoid caseback contact. But otherwise with the bracelet on, don't care much as I do not see when wearing the watch.

My case back is unscratched since the bracelet never rubs against it. If my watch isn't on my wrist, it's either in a case or sitting inside an Oakley travel case. If I absolutely have to take it off during the day, for some reason, I'll carefully lay the watch on its side. I scratch my watches plenty with daily wear, so I try to prevent any unnecessary ones where I can.

I don’t look at the caseback so I don’t care.

I never let bracelets some in contact with rear covers.
Hence all my case backs appear as new.

Caseback is least of my concern
