BODERRYOriginal Japanese Automatic Dive Watches for Men,Titanium Case with Sapphire Crystal -100M Waterproof Mens Mechanical Wrist Watches with Swiss Super Luminova & Screw Down Crown

I was super hyped to get my Boderry Seaturtle Ocean Titanium Arctic. The first impressions were fire—lightweight yet solid build, dark matte finish, and that heavy crown action felt like I was operating a machine. It’s my first titanium watch, and it looked and felt premium out of the box.BUT within a few days, the titanium case back and bracelet started showing deep scratches—not just tiny scuffs, but legit marks that made the “rugged” look feel “worn out.” It was disappointing. I expected titanium to be tough, but without any scratch-resistant coating, it doesn’t hold up well to daily wear.Update: I switched to the rubber strap—and trust me, game changer. It looks sportier and now no more scratches to worry about. Also, huge shoutout to the movement—this Seiko NH35 is insanely accurate. It’s been 5 days since I set the time, and it’s only gained about +10 seconds. That’s wild for a mechanical at this price.So yeah, mixed feelings. Looks amazing. Feels great. Runs like a beast. But the bracelet’s scratch issue was a letdown. If Boderry ever offers a DLC-coated version, I’d upgrade in a heartbeat.
