Can the bezel wear away?

I've heard plenty of stories about how easy it is to scratch or chip the bezel through dropping the phone, but could the bezel wear away with everyday use?

I want to take the case off my phone, but once had another phone with a similar finish and it didn't take long for the finish to wear away.
 
Thanks. I'm asking because my Panasonic wireless charger keeps losing the connection when I have my thin silicone case on, but works fine with no case.

In the past though, I had another phone with a similar finish to the Note's bezel on a 4-way navigation button. This wore away quickly and I didn't know if it was shoddy manufacturing or my grubby little mitts lol

I already have 3 minor scratches on the bezel so I just didn't want it getting any worse.
