Kinda messed up my LV...

....this weekend. Don´t ask me how

So I guess it needs some TLC
The crystal is not broken..just badly scratched. Gonna have it replaced asap....but I think I´m gonna leave the insert as is.

You can't say don't ask with a pic like that...

What did you go and do???

I broke the crystal out on my SD (well ok it was my friends I was wearing but its want inspired me to get a SD over a Sub and yes I paid to have his watch fixed)

Anyway I was leaving a bar and having issues with two drunks that would not
take a clue and just go home so the SD went over my knuckles like a pair of brass knuckles and lets say it did its job! I got outta there and they realized a shorter guy is not always the easiest victim.

It just proofs what I try to tell people: In Sweden we use our Rolex's as toolwatches.
We don't just sit down wash and polish them.

David a new crystal will do it.
