I remeber that there was another member in here that had an accident with his bezel. The story was like his niece was swinging with a key chain and slam!! The keys landed on his watch and the bezel broke.

^It didn't break competely but it chipped. I remember it too. I don't think it's claimed to be indestructable, just very hard wearing. Hit anything hard enough and it will break.
By imperfections I think he means where the numbers aren't filled in properly and such. Nope never seen that. LOL

I busted my DSSD's bezel on the engine block of my Corvette (stupid header bolt...) I haven't seen any with imperfections coming from Rolex though.

Not really the ceramic itself, but the pearl :

My GMT IIC has a tiny scratch on the triangle marker at 12 o'clock...
Not sure how it was scratched since I assume it would be difficult to get a precise knock in that spot to cause a scratch This I guess is post-production imperfection (not manufacturer fault)... Question is whether it would require RSC to re-blast the fillings for the markers... which could be costly...
