Question about VC Overseas bezel

For those of you who've had your VC Overseas for yrs now; how has the bezel held up? That highly polished surface looks like a potential scratch magnet to me but I'm wondering how they've been IRL.

I’ve had mine about a year and it looks almost as nice as the day I got it. With that being said I’m not one of those “I’ll do anything I want with this watch on” types and try not to wear it if I’m washing the car or working around the house. But I wear it a lot and it’s held up well.

Not a really big deal imo, the fact it's broken up with the brushed surfaces underneath also somehow hides the hairlines well. I think I have some but it's not unlike any other piece with polished surfaces.

I have a Generation 2 O/S chronograph and wear it in rotation with a Rolex Sea Dweller 16600 and it has held up wonderfully over the last 6 years. The bezel is protected by the case and doesn't scratch easily. I highly recommend the Overseas and think it is vastly under-rated.

I pretty much wear my overseas 24/7 and it has picked up a lot of hair line scratches and little dings on the bezel but slightly less than the bezel on an explorer which I used to own
