Trading an AP for 2 Rolex
I've loved my 15500 RO and it is incredible. With that being said, I feel like I have to be extremely cautious when wearing it. All of the polished surfaces are very easy to scratch and ding.
Should be getting a 23' Bluesy and a 23' Root Beer in return . No question in my mind the AP is on a different level but the way I wear them just may not be a for me

That's just silly. From your sig it seems you have enough second tier Swiss watches :)

I would keep the AP. Scratches are part of life. They polish out when the watch is serviced.

the bluesy and root beer will scratch much much easier. if you're worried about scratches those are the last 2 watches you should consider. the entire bracelet will be covered in microscratches within a week of wearing each of those 2 because any piece of dust or clothing will show visible damage on the PCLs
APs don't actually scratch as easily as people say. they hold up a lot better in day to day wear in my experience and you won't cover them in scratches from just wearing long sleeves. it's easier to get deep scratches on them though but then again it's also easy to heavily damage PCLs. rolex's oyster bracelets with PCLs stand up the worst to normal casual wear out of any bracelet i've seen |

Gold PCLs are scratch magnets
