I've seen similar pictures and it really put me off.

Same here, I don't mind spending the $599 and the sapphire is what is making consider the upgrade from Aluminum, but all those fingerprints is such a turn off.

If you've ever owned a stainless steel watch you'll know its no biggie.

That side is usually against your wrist so I doubt it's an issue.
