Jet Black Apple Watch - will it scratch like the iPhone 7 Jet Black?

Apple’s disclaimer when the Jet Black iPhone 7 came out:

The high-gloss finish of the jet black iPhone 7 is achieved through a precision nine-step anodization and polishing process. Its surface is equally as hard as other anodized Apple products; however, its high shine may show fine micro-abrasions with use. If you are concerned about this, we suggest you use one of the many cases available to protect your iPhone.

I tried looking through Apple’s website, but I did not see any disclaimers regarding the Series 10 Jet Black

Having owned 2 different Jet Black iPhone 7s, I am fully expecting “micro-abrasions” to be there on the Series 10 Jet Black watch. This shouldn’t be a deal breaker though.

The micro-abrasions will be similar to the scratches on the stainless steel Apple Watch, which I think will give it a nice patina. You won’t notice them until you look under harsh light under the right angle, but what you will notice, in any light or angle, is the nice glossy shine.
