Banged Up Nautilus Photos?

Can anyone share photos of a really banged up / scratched Nautilus? Preferably a 5711 but any Nautilus or even an Aquanaut.

I’m just curious as to how they look after some real wear and tear.

Thank you!

This makes me think the 5711 should be treated like a dress watch instead of a sports watch. Whereas most rolexes and even the AP ROs getting some scratches can pass off as “having character”, it just doesn’t seem that way for the Nautilus. Maybe it’s because I just haven’t seen as many vintage Nautilus?
