Blue Bezel on SMP 2531.80

This is my first post here and a great site for a first time buyer of an Omega watch...

I'm thinking about buying one of these watches but I'm undecided between either the 2531.80 or the same SMP but with a steel bezel with engraved numbers & white dial. My concern is with the blue bezel and its scratch resistance. Is this bezel anodized aluminum? Anybody see scratches on their 2531.80 bezel? I would think this would look pretty bad if it got scratched showing the base metal below the blue color.

Also, what would the part number be for the larger automatic SMP with steel engraved bezel and a white dial? Thanks!
