2:00 into this video and this guy has a ton of scratches on the side of his new watch 5 pro already :(

This makes me wonder how durable the actual finish will be on the new watch 5 pro.

We shall see... Titanium is tough stuff, but unlike the watch 4 classic the watch 5 pro has no angles to deflect blows. No way to know how he's been using it though.

I'm definitely not seeing that kind of battery life though. Although I do use assistant and respond to messages and stuff with voice to text.
 
I got a case for my watch 5 if you wear the watch daily bumps and scrapes will happen that is where the protection comes in. My watch 3 looks almost brand new.
 
My experience with titanium is that it scratches really easy, but to put a dent in or chip the metal is very difficult.

Not that we would have access to do this, but the scratches supposedly buff easily.

Don't think they are going to buff out too easy on the black version.
 
Yeah, scratches can be a concern with smartwatches, especially if you’re wearing them daily and during various activities. The titanium body of the Watch 5 Pro is supposed to be tougher than aluminum, but it still won’t be completely scratch-proof.

And if you're someone who likes having different watch options, even classic luxury styles, there are alternatives like the patek philippe nautilus replica that are designed for a classy look without the worry of daily damage.
