When I first got my Speedy Pro, I was concerned with the crystal not being man-made sapphire. I wear my watch on my right arm and it seems that it is always catching on something. But, the scratches aren't too bad and I've only had to replace the crystal once. The rest of the scratches were easily buffed out. I concur with Derek's recommendation: buy the model with the sapphire crystal if that is what you want. But, maybe you should try the "stock" parts first, you might find it perfectly acceptable. Besides, hesalite does not chip like sapphire and it is much cheaper to replace.
