It just shows you love it, like a little hickey on your lover's back-side.

Lol I think worth mentioning until today, I have worn this watch total less than 10 times....and it's this scratched up...which was my point...either the stainless steel used is very soft, or I'm mistreating the watch by desk diving with it.....? 💁🏻‍♂️

10 times and only desk diving? Something seems off.  I've worn my Tudor GMT regularly (never stopped yet because I'm the winder) since I got it in February or March this year and my clasp still looks new.

Yeah I type on a keyboard while wearing it but not like I'm tossing it around or rubbing against walls lol. 

Maybe has to do with the way the clasp sits on my wrist ? But in contrast, my zelos I wore to work for 2 weeks and not a single mark on the stainless steel bracelet and only very light marks on the clasp. 

Either I'm doing something wrong or this swiss 'stainless steel' is really not as fancy as they make it out to be. 316L or whatever my ass! Lol

every day wear heavier usage  what does the rest of the watch look like?

Pretty much like new

then enjoy it you can buff it out but why bother it adds character to the history of the watch👍

I'm no ergonomics expert but I have to suspect that technique could be improved. I presume the watch, and hence the wrist, are dragging on the desk? I'm pretty sure this is bad form and the wear on your wrist should probably be a bigger concern. I'm also curious what this material is that is harder than steel...

I'd recommend wrist supports for keyboard and mouse until you can get in the habit of moving hands from the elbow. I don't know the specifics but look into proper typing posture and hand positions.

That's a good point actually. Thanks will keep this in mind. 

The surface is just a standard laminate desk surface...no metal or stone or anything fancy.
