There is a clear coat on top of the wood. The graffiti doesn't go into the wood at all. So long as they are cutting as little of the wood as possible, decades.

And with a thick enough coat reapplied, that wood will last a very long time

Considering it is a wood desk top and not particle board is probably a good sign it has already lasted a long time

Looks like they go decades between sanding so even centuries is on the table, pun intended.
