I had my brand new 114300 serviced due to movement issues. My dealer sent it to the cologne service center and they claimed it had scratches. It is back now and I see scratches I have not recognized so fare. Treated the watch like a baby.

Impossible for anyone to answer. Of course it is a possibility. You can take it up with the AD and hopefully they can make it right with a quick polish. Of just do it yourself.

Does it really matter in the long run?
The AD, the RSC, you - anyone in that chain might have done it. Doesn’t look different than it will look in 6 months - it’s bound to get swirls and scratches.

Since the only reasonable remedy you can expect is polishing, the only question is who pays...

Personally I wouldn’t polish it now.

Yeah, get it polished if you want but it will look like that with normal wear soon enough. If it wasn't the clasp I would be more upset.

I always take photos in store before i hand the watch over for this reason

As you have no way of knowing, id just let this one go

Doesn't matter, IMO. You'd have put those scratches on in a week yourself

I prefer to send the watch directly to the RSC rather than go through the AD. Of course, if I am close I'll take it in. Fewer people handling the better.

It's a very easy DIY fix if it bothers you that much.
Surprised that the guys in Koln sent it out like that
