I understand it bothers you...but I sure as hell wouldn't pay that, its just too small to really worry about, as already stated, don't you think you'll get another ding somewhere along the line?

OP, I think the above is superlative advice.

In fact, it should qualify in an instruction manual somewhere for how to deal with dings and scratches!

Hardly worth replacing the entire bezel.

It'll get plenty more dings over the years. It's a DSSD, not at a safe queen.

Enjoy it!

You have to either live with it...or you have to cough up the money.

mmm im aware of that too, but im that kind of guy that should“t wear my stuff, i want to keep em mint from day one, til the day i dont want it anymore, i don“t like dents, dings ext. ex. i got a few dead pixels in my cars dashboard, i needed to replace that and get some piece of mind.

I might be able to live with this ding, but, i can“t really not focus on anything, except this ding. Sounding weird and quite idiotic.. but i might search a shrink first :D

And just so everybody knows, i spoke to a RSC today, and they where able to just replace the bezel, their idea was to send them the watch and they might be able to sort it out , without replacing the bezel.

That would be the best i guess and that procedure was up to £100.

Replacing the bezel if they couldn“t was approx. £370->£680 tops. And the lad, said that he doubt it would cost over £500, because i had the ceramic intact

I will keep em crossed..

There has been a hell of a horror story for me. But here is the results. And they didn't replace either the bezel or the ceramic. Just a light polish.

Price £160
