New watch(5 days old) damaged already :(

Hi all,

I finally made my dream purchase of a Seamaster Auto whilst on a short holiday in Jersey(tax haven for rich Brits).
Unfortunately I must have caught the watch on something as I noticed a few days later some small marks on the bezel.
To say I am p*ssed is an understatement.

So I have been pointed in the direction of this board and from what I have read so far you guys all know your stuff.

What are my options?The marks are not huge at all its "just" that I know they are there.Would I be able to get the damage repaired or will it mean a new bezel?.

If needs be I can try and take a picture of the damage and post it.

Thanks

Steveo
