Sundial Ideal Rock Total Posts: 4,590 Last Post: 7/14/2009 Member Since: 3/14/2005	I would like to wear my Tiffany Swing bracelet with my Rolex watch, but I am concerned that it will scratch the crystal. Have those of you who wear a bracelet with your watch had any problems with one damaging the other???

It dulls more quickly after polishing when I wear braelets (together) on that wrist..... cheers--Sharon "People who possess great qualities, do not need to show off".

I'm glad the crystals don't get scratched, but I never even thought about the band. However my watch has the two tone jubilee style bracelet that has all those little links so the scratches probably wouldn't show up that much. I think I'll just give it a try.

Even the stainless bracelet part of the Tag watch seems fine...it looks just as shiny and non-scratched as when i received it two years ago! "Go confidently in the direction of your dreams.

Madam Bijoux Ideal Rock Total Posts: 3,053 Last Post: 11/22/2009 Member Since: 7/15/2005	Hi! I've worn my tennis bracelet with my Rolex. The bracelet is channel set, so there was no danger of scratching the crystal or the yellow gold on the watch. I think it would depend on how the tennis bracelet is set. If it's a shared prong setting, the girdles or other facets on the diamonds might scratch the gold on the watch. "I never met a diamond I didn't like." No jewel is as beautiful as a cat's eyes.

Sundial Ideal Rock Total Posts: 4,590 Last Post: 7/14/2009 Member Since: 3/14/2005	I appreciate your comments MB! The bracelet I want to wear with my watch has tiny diamonds kind of bezel set into the design so I am thinking it will be okay.

HollyS Ideal Rock Total Posts: 4,098 Last Post: 11/18/2009 Member Since: 7/18/2007	I've worn a simple bracelet with my watch for years, no problems. Currently (the last two years), the bracelet of choice has been a flat link sterling which is completely smooth; nothing to scratch the watch with. I would feel naked without the bracelet -- I swear to you, I think I started the trend! Or maybe I was just "cutting edge"! Back in 1984 on my 25th B-Day, I got a gold-toned tank style Seiko watch from my parents, and I bought a 14K flat link bracelet to wear with it. What did we call those chains?
