First I purchased an Asha (diamond simulant) supposed to have a patented diamond surface deposit making the cubic ziconia as hard as a diamond and then I purchased what was supposed to be a synthetic sapphire which means it has the exact molecular composition and hardness as a natural sapphire. Within a few months both stones started rounding off on the top of the stones where the flat part of the stone joined the edges.
I have pictures of the sapphire which actually display wear all around the top of the stone. I have 3 watches with synthetic sapphire crystals and none of them have any marks on the crystal whatsoever. I was told a a story of how sapphires scratch like anything else. I replaced the Asha stone with a beautiful synthetic Moissanite, rare earth element with more reflective fire than a diamond.
The better than diamond response was denial and when I tried to post a negative comment on their forums I was banned for trolling, and I'm not even sure what that means.
