Is this for real. All metal will get scratched. More or less ... it's not 24 Kt so it won't be night and day. Roughing it ... is ok
I totally agree, and I know it will be refinished so I didn't think it was a big deal at all for the TT I sold.

My FIL wore a YG Day Date every day for many years. It looked fine to me. I think sometimes there is a temptation on this board to keep watches looking LNIB when the rest of the world buys a watch to wear it and doesn't examine it under a loupe looking for imperfections to disclose when they flip it after six months.

It is possible I am exaggerating a little.

Enjoy your new grail!!!

Forgive me, but I find both a little condescending and borderline insulting. I'm sure this is not unintentional.

My man, you are the man. I just want positive vibes. But this is your Sunday. This thread is about you. You are Rolex and it's heritage. I want to be you. Can we call it now? You could have the last word. Go ahead....

Honestly when I wore my TT I thought is uncomfortable due to weight. There is no doubt that this watch is much worse and causes fatigue. It's one of their heaviest ones
