Well a tile floor can sure do the trick. Actually not sure if shattering counts as a scratch. Anyway, my GMT crystal shattered to bits when I dropped my watch on a tile floor in the bathroom. I've since found out this is a not infrequent source of crystal destruction.

So I do think that it's tough to just scratch a sapphire crystal, but they can shatter when hit with force. Mine didn't even drop that far, just land smack dab on the cyclops at the right angle.
