I have yet to get a scratch on a watch - straight to devastation seems to be my forte. I have been unlucky with dropping it both times as it landed face down the first time and on a corner yesterday. If it had landed on the strap I don’t think there would have been any damage. I wear the watches every day and play squash and footie with them on (covered by my patented sweat band protector) with no issues. The first drop was when I was doing hot yoga and you can’t wear an Apple Watch doing it due to the temp and humidity. The watch fell out of a locker. Yesterday was just my own cack handedness and the watch dropped about 18 inches onto the floor from a slatted bench - it fell through the slats.
These are expensive lessons to learn.
