Is it easy to get scratch on the steel bezel?

Not really if relatively careful but less forgiving than ceramic for sure.

Modern Rolex, 116500LN white dial ceramic is contemporary. The silver bezels IMO don't frame the dials very well and they bleed out.

Yes scratches and dings can be expected.

I’ve had my white 520 for about a year now and I feel like I’m finally appreciating it. It certainly isn’t a DaytonaC but it’s beautiful in its own way. It’s very elegant and has a more dressy feel, yet still can be sporty at the same time.

If both 520 and 500 were the same price, I’d probably go for the 500. But to me, the 500 isn’t worth the premium over the 520. If you want a SS Daytona, the 520’s are a fantastic deal right now. And since there aren’t too many white dial Rolexes available, a white 520 is a great choice.
