Scratches on ROC bracelet

[lianghee]

I wasn't being extra careful on my ROC's bracelet since the bracelet on my previous ROO grey was quite "scratch proof". While cleaning my watch yesterday,I was quite surprised to see a small hairline scratch on my barely one month old 26331st. Seems like the bracelet on ROC is more prone to scratches?

Already gotten over it...just being curious

All bracelets can be scratched, however the RO bracelet IMO hides them better

i agree. People tend to focus on the bezel as being a negative for showing scratches and don't focus on the positive of the bracelet's ability to hide them. I think my RO bracelet looks better over time than my GMT II bracelet with PCL. The Rolex bracelet doesn't hide scratches well at all.

I already scratched mine as well. Just wear it as normal. If it bugs you, can send to APSC for some light polishing.

Thanks all. I will try to be more careful. It doesn't really bother me too much now as it is just a light hairline scratch which is not visible unless under a bright light.

Yeah, just try to be careful, it will mark up a bit, but you get used to it.

I've found the RO bracelet completely acceptable for daily wear. I wear my 15202 near daily and I can't see a hairline anywhere on the bracelet. Bezel is still near perfect, just a few faint hairlines on the polished sides presumably from my shirt or microfiber cloths. In contrast, I've worn my BLNR less than 10 times and there are some visible hairlines in the right angles despite being super careful with it.
