Cant run from scratches, fated liao, what is yours is yours !

Last time my new seiko, bring for boat fishing, exercise, IPPT etc, came back and check, all ok.

Then while lounging around at home, open the fridge, hit the handle and got a scratch....

So, thats life la

Is a scratch or mark? Cos it makes a big different. If scratch then i guess u have to change the whole sapphire glass or else just bear with it.

How to remove the cyclops?

Actually, do not need to bother. More of them will come and along with time, some of them will disappear too. Rolex is jewellery, but a tool (watch) too.

Perhaps you can try change the bracelet to a leather / rubber strap, but that will not be really Rolex.
Or buy a second hand bracelet to 'preserve' the original bracelet.

best way to prevent scratch is dont wear lock inside a safe

I'm fine with scratches on the stainless steel parts.. what I really dislike are scratches on the crystal (or AR coating on the crystal). My understanding is that the Rolex crystal does not have AR coating except under the cyclops correct? As such, the hardness of the crystal is what is keeping scratches away. So far do you guys find scratches on the crystal?

The best experience I've had so far in terms of a watch crystal with AR coating is my Bremont S500. I was sceptical at first about the case and AR (both sides of the crystal) being hardened to 2000Hv for it to be scratch resistant. However, after 1 year of ownership (wearing it through all kinds of activities), there is not a single scratch on the AR coating.
