Do you baby your Apple Watch?

I had the S4 until I got the S8 as a gift. Not a single scratch on the S4 and I hope that’ll continue with the S8 as well.

I only put a screen protector on since I hate scratches on any type of screen. I don’t “baby” the watches but at the same time I’m not really someone who bangs things around. I’m consciously careful with all of my gadgets.
 
As per the title?
I'm still using my OG Apple Watch Edition. Realized very quickly there was no way I was going to be able to baby it.

We have unfinished edges on our granite countertops and I've had the sapphire crystal knock and brush into them probably hundreds of times -- crystal on jagged crystal action without a scratch. I've showered with it since day one, worn it doing dishes, playing rough with my kid, knocked it on trees and rocks hiking... the thing is crazy resilient. The stainless steel isn't shiny and new, but is still structurally sound.

My series 7, SBTi has been near indestructible. I have banged it into multiple objects and it still looks new!

VERY disappointed that Apple discontinued the “Edition” Series. The black aluminum and stainless series will not hold up as well as the DLC coating on the SBTi.
