How much can the BB Rose be beaten up
Have been wearing my BBN ETA for a month now and while the watch is still in prestine condition I sometimes wonder if it can be beaten up same as the Sub Date which was once my daily watch for more than 10 years. The BB especially its bezel to me seems a bit more delicater than the Sub or I am just over worried? Or perhaps it seems delicate because of its vintage charm that the Sub lacks. Would be interesting to hear your opinions on this.

Which Rolex Model has Grown on You Over Time and Why
For me, it's the Sky-Dweller because it has a cool Dial and is 42 mm in size. Just loving that watch lately!
