New Subs: Vulnerability to Scratches
I work in New York and walk a lot, take the subway, go to the bars and get drunk with my mates. One thing I'm wondering:How careful should I be with my new Sub?

But for some reason I'm a bit apprehensive to be so carefree about how I wear it. Even as I'm typing this I feel like I sound like an idiot haha. Anyway... Do any of you feel the same way? Or is it safe to say I can just go about my day knowing I won't damage my watch by some incidental contact on something.
