Wanna Know How I Got These Scars?

Not sure if this has been done, but I think it would be a fun idea to have a thread about the various dings and scratches our watches have accumulated through the years.

Whether you got a couple scratches and dings diving, climbing a mountain or you wear your Rolex to work as a construction worker. Every scratch and ding has a story.

Desk divers like myself are welcome as well.

My Batman clasp looks similar...marks from living life. But other than the clasp the rest of the watch looks pretty clean.

16 years of scars.







It's been with me on every adventure - rock climbing, sky diving, fishing, swimming, cycling, you name it, never missed a beat.

23 year old unpolished Tudor Big Block. I love the scars!

By some way of luck, not a single crack in the Bakelite.

Accidentally swung a padlock against it.
