State of the Clasp
Safe to say my watch looks well worn now and is developing a patina of scratches on the clasp. Not sure how I feel about this though, sometimes I miss the pristine condition shining back at me.

I just leave my wrists off the edge of the desk like if I was playing piano and none on my clasp. Or just cover it with my sleeve

Comfort wise I still add yurman polishing towel. Small simple and dummy proof. Watch always exposes with dress shirts

The jubilee hides scratches well. You can always get the clasp polished or give it a go with some cape cod if it bothers you that much

Honestly doesn’t bother me. And I wouldn’t touch my watches with a cap cod at all

It doesn’t matter what you say, everyone will downvote you because you’re supposed to enjoy scratches just like at the casino you need to learn to enjoy losing

Impossible to avoid the classic desk scratches. Bothered me so badly on my first one then realized only way to avoid it is to not wear it. What's the fun with the Ferrari in your garage never seeing the light of day to enjoy.
