I have read other posts on other boards about the outer coating possibly being prone to scratches, however it is not common at all. Maybe a couple that I saw. I think if the watch was accidently brushed against brick, concrete or metal, it would scratch the coating but not the crystal. I find it hard to believe that Breitling wouldn't have this problem occasionaly as well. I don't know for fact as I have never owned one.
I wouldn't worry about it too much, John. There are way to many happy PO owners who have never had a problem with this. It is unfortunate about what happened to the original posters watch but I do think Omega's quality is competative with the other luxury lines. And I do think you can get the darned stuff removed! Just enjoy the watch and don't lay brick with it.
