I like the dings in my watches. They are like little battle scars. Little stories to go along with the watch. That being said, most of my watches are vintage anyways, so it's less of a big deal. I think that's why I like the vintage ones best. I get a little OCD on new watches and tend to sell them because I don't wear them (for fear of dinging them!)
Bottom line, if you love the watch that much I would buy another one and keep that one for as a spare. You never know what might happen to the new one and perhaps you will need a spare part or spare movement.
