Hi there was just wondering how the do the finish for the bezel? And how resistant it is to scratches damage?
Also if you were to get a nasty scratch how would that be removed? By BUK refinishing it or replacing the whole bezel?
Just a thought

Its an aluminium sheet recessed into the steel bezel. The steel edge gives it some side impact protection but it is only printed aluminium probably with a fairly tough 2-pack lacquer coat. The watch is built like a tank but the finish will show wear and tear more easily than some other models. |

My wife has an SOH38 as a beater and there is nothing that scratches the colour. She has some deep marks in it but hte colour is still perfect. |

Definitely good to know considering I'm most likely going to purchase a SOH once I graduate from getting my Master's degree!! I'm going to get the blue!! |
