Overall: Good, pre-owned condition. It will be absolutely stunning on the wrist.
The strap has moderate wear as shown; it has tons of life left and does not have any unpleasant odors.
The case has one minor blemish on the underside of a lug as shown (not visible on the wrist), and a couple more minuscule, nearly-unobservable micro-dings along the bottom left case edge. The rest of the watch only shows absolute minimal, nearly-unobservable wear.
The watch is being sold as-is, as-described, at a notable discount from normal market value.
A secure, efficient, transparent transaction is a top priority. It would be my pleasure to answer any additional questions you may have.

No payment is required during this step. Once submitted, we ask that you contact us to initiate the active sourcing process.
For items labeled "Sold Out," this typically indicates they are no longer available due to rarity or limited circulating supply. If you're interested in one of these pieces, you’re welcome to reach out to explore potential sourcing options.
Please note that market conditions and supply can fluctuate, and prices listed for past units may not reflect current market values. We’ll provide a quote tailored to current market conditions and your specific preferences.
Keep in mind that details from past listings, such as warranty dates, condition, and included extras, were specific to those units and may differ from what we can source. We’ll work with you to refine your preferences and provide a customized quote.

For smaller to moderately-sized transactions, we accept Zelle, cash, and cryptocurrency.
If you prefer using a credit card, you can complete the payment through our marketplace listings on eBay, Chrono24, or Bezel.

Typically, we offer competitive compensation to acquire quality stock and set our prices at competitive levels from the start. This approach differs from higher prices set by boutique retail resellers, allowing us to avoid extensive negotiations and trade value manipulation. While we value genuine negotiation attempts with reasonable offers and supporting reasoning, inquiries seeking the "best price" will generally be directed to the listed price.
