Stainless steel, even Apple's special Stainless Steel, can scratch. We've seen many photos and videos of the scratches that show up after a short time of use in normal conditions.

Of course you can use this guide to polish off Apple Watch scratches, but if scratches bother you, the Apple Watch Sport is a better overall device.
