Good way to lok at it. I can guarantee you that the next one that comes that is similar will bother you less than this one, and so on, and so on. Enjoy!

Yeah leave it be. I remember my first gouge on my case and to me it looked bad enough to warrant laser welding and refinishing!
I was on a plane the other day admiring my watch when I remembered the gouge which I struggled to find again.
Two things I noted, one was that it made me realise I needed a sight test and secondly, when I found the 'gouge' which is about a millimetre long, it made me remember what I was doing at the time of the incident. All I can say was that I was having a great time...😉

The dent is like a bump where the metal has pushed up the edge of the metal and top is not flat anymore as you can see in the photo.but it will get many more dings scratches and dents as I dint ever sell watches from my collection.and I dont overly baby them.I did have a great night when it happens. So my sub c has a new character mark.I can tell it's mine ha ha love this forum great place

Not a major flaw. However, I know how you feel.
