Posted on another forum Jeff. I'm not an expert for sure, but does not rolex inscribe there name around the chapter ring, or is that only on certain models?
I can see one "ROLEX" inside the chapter-ring just above "RING"... I guess that the light effect mask the other...?
The ceramic bezel is not "scratch-proof" it's stated as "Highly scratch resistant".
Saying that a sapphire crystal is scratchproof is a wrong appelation allready.
In my opinion: Offcourse a ceramic bezel is scratchable, just ripp it against concrete or sharp steel...Don't forget that what is making the concrete dangerous to watches is not the cement but the stones who are mixed inside to reenforce the structure.
You'll find very hard and sharp stones as flints and granit pieces inside for exemple...
I see it, as there is no material who can claim to be scratch-proof, as to form this material, you have to generaly cut it anyhow.
A such hard material would be of no use at all if it would stay only at it's native state: Unattackable...
