Hi,
I'd say no to that, I think. I owned an Oyster Petpetual Datejust in yellow Rolesor with a Jubilee bracelet for about four years, and have now owned an Oysterquartz Datejust in white Rolesor with the Jubilee-type integral bracelet for about a year and a half. And in that time, the OQ has collected almost no scratches, whereas the OP definitely was building up a fine patina (mainly on the polished lugs and centre links) by then. The all-brushed nature of the case and bracelet of the OQ definitely helps I think. Normal daily scratches either seem not to happen, or are so small that they blend in with the brushed case and aren't really visible.
