I think that looks like sh!t
to each his own tho and if you enjoy it, thats all that matters. If you are going for a nice night out, do you wear it or something with a "bit less wear"? What does the paint on your vehicles look like? |

if you wear it then it will show wear, personally I like this better than seeing watches covered in stickers and or with a coating of elmer's glue over them

I love this kind of threads.
Please do more damage to it, and come back here bragging about how much "you wear" it. |

The advantage of the maxicase, is you can beat it to death, and polishing it won’t erase the lugs like a 5digit.

All those scratches look pretty superficial. I’d bet money a cape cod takes care of 95% of the scratches.

If I didn't already know that you are the guy who operates the big rotary saw at the sawmill, I would think your job is tough on your watch!!!

Glad to see a tool watch being used and beat on instead of sitting in a drawer or a safe! I thought my Explorer was beat up until I saw your pics. Nothing that can't be fixed or partially fixed. Either way, there is plenty of character.
