Within less then 24 hours I managed to scratch it . Very unlucky .. I guess this means im not returning it..

I tried some polished stuff but obviously it aint plastic so didnt work ..

What's this for an answer! It's his own fault!

i have a custom screen protector on it so you cant see the scartch anymore , im gonna order a real one online probably ebay ill take a pic when i replace it .. the scratch is almost one centimeter long its very superficial you an only see it at certain angle .

and hey i was tempted to return it like that the guy may not notice it... it was bought at those stores where they dont ask many questions , I guess i just like the watch anyways with a stainless bracelet on it looks kick ass .

That is the very reason I have screen protector on. I can't hardly tell it is on and at least I know it won't get scratches.

Just to correct some incorrect information above. The Gear 2 AND the Gear 1 both had Gorilla glass 3. As we all know glass scratches when in contact with the right material (grit/sand). It won't scratch from a shirt cuff button or a jacket metal stud however.

You can always see which products use which kind of Gorilla glass here:-

Ya but they can't prove that. Maybe there was a fault in the production of the glass and his didn't get the protective oil coating, or the glass wasn't tempered right. You never know,

Just dishonest, Lets just say your moral compass needs to be adjusted

That's unlucky. I haven't had my Gear 2 long, but it's still in perfect condition (almost). I guess I'll be extra careful from now on.

eric93se · May 12, 2014

Just a scratch, don't sweat it :silly:

JamboneMan · May 13, 2014

I just got my Zagg cover today and I will definitely put it on tomorrow. I hope it fits correctly considering it's clearly labeled for the 'Galaxy Gear 2', I just have the Gear 2. I don't know why they didn't get that right.

Yeah mine scratched as well. It was a minor scratch and it disappeared when I applied a zagg protector. Now the screen isn't quite as beautiful but this watch is really about functionality when it comes down to it.

On the plus side, you can't even seen that there is a protector on it at a glance. The edges blend well into the brushed metal.

It scratched, but you don't know how serious the scratch is. It could have easily damaged the watch itself.

Mine scratched today as well. Does anyone recommend one screen protector over the others?

2cm long, lower left corner. Totally avoidable too, just wasn't paying attention.
