You bought the single best watch to be stuck on a desert island with, IMO. I love mine, and I hope you love yours. It will develop SCRATCHES -- in euphemism parlance we call it "patina" -- but don't fret. Wear it and love it. And be comforted by knowing that when ZA Day* comes, your watch will be a makeshift compass -- in the Northern Hemisphere.

So far, this watch is my singular favorite overall, amongst all. Enjoy it.

* ZA Day = Zombie Apocalypse Day.
