Why Would Somebody Do This....

Just watch and halfway through the video this guy does something unthinkable to a new 88. I don't care if it's resistant- why????

Maybe he was cleaning some gummy stuff off the crystal with a razor blade?

I use one on my car windshield if I cant get the gooey stuff off.

I dont think it necessarily can hurt the crystal.

I wouldnt do it but he has a nice watch ,, looks very real and doubt he would harm his watch intentionally.

Yeah Sino watches sells Chinese made replicas (Look at his youtube username - repwatches), that's why he was turning it, to show the prospective replica purchaser AKA Poser, that it's a pretty reliable movement and scratching it to show the crystal is scratch resistant. The 12-6 hour fonts look a little small, like it's obviously fake.
