    Here's what my Rolex Datejust manual says (on Page 4):

    The Rolex Datejust model is the front-runner of the Rolex Oyster Collection...All are fitted with a crystal crafted from a solid block of synthetic sapphire that is virtually scratchproof.

    Mine was purchased 2006. I use it everyday, not a single scratch so far.

    nitrox, baka maalaga ka lng sa watch mo. scratchproof doesn't mean that it can't be scratched. parang bulletproof din yan, it can withstand bullet but just to a certain point.

    I have a 16233. Service in Rolex is from 8-18t depending on what needs to be done but this should include calibration, change gaskets if needed and general cleaning.

    Actually hindi rin ako maalaga e :D Ive got a 2 yr-old Omega that I used to wear daily but now its kindda battered/bruised with scratches on the bracelet and bezel. Pati yung watch case me mga tama na. I agree, probably watches have varying tolerance for scratches, I guess Rolex-es can withstand them more.
