In this case the OP has a brand new tampered watch with no warranty support.
And he noticed it.
So I wonder how many modern watch owners would be surprised to find out they don’t actually have a manufacturer’s warranty?

I remember seeing a dealer from NYC on TikTok, thinking he are so clever, pulled out a draw of dials and said how he was going to fix up a watch and make it beautiful. This and that. They are all in it to make a quick buck.
