During my ping pong match I won over my business partner a few years ago.

Yep! It’s mine for good. Lol

The body is good as new, thank you for asking! Nothing a plate and 11 screws couldn’t fix. The beating I took from my wife after having to take care of my sorry ass for the following weeks was far worse than the crash, so I push my limits on new watches instead of new bikes. The watch and helmet serve as reminders of what a bad day really is, and how lucky I really am. The BLNR was replaced and gets beaten up plenty on my travels and weekends. :)

Wow, joking to one side pleased your all ok, and yes your watch and helmet will serve as a reminder to you, I walked away from being hit by a car after 5 hours of being on a spinal board, listening to my wife sobbing was more agony than the smash its self, Be safe fella, "H"

All my watches have minor scratches, especially the clasp area as I wear the watch on my left wrist and write left handed where the watch band rubs on surfaces.

If I worried about scratching my Rolex watches, I would not wear them but keep them in my watch winder.

This thread is just crazy

No Rolex should be "banged up". They should all be kept where they truly belong - unworn, in a safe. Doing this will maximize full investment potential.

Doesn't look bad at all for a 10-year daily wearer

small chip on lug edge/slightly jagged lug edge. Small flattened spot on opposite lug edge. Bracelet scratched, two prety visible scuffs on the bracelet. Each one is a tattoo that I wear with pride and tells a story :)
