Thanks to sheldonsmith for pointing these out in this thread

OK, your turn, now show me some aluminum bezels that broke when the rest of the watch survived.
The link to these images as well as others is over at http://www.minus4plus6.com/ouch.htm

Great discussion and I too am troubled by the GMT ceramic and bracelet clasp issues, but I still wear my GMT-C every day. It is a three year old Z series without any issues, although I do check the clasp under a loupe every few weeks. I do take comfort that the percentage for breakage is low, and that without the Internet, none of use would be aware of these anomalies.
