Purely subjective and meaningless.
Washed out pictures are terrible. Makes it very hard to properly judge the condition of a i.e. case. I always skip sellers who use these.
Polished you ask, rhetorical question, how else can second hand watches look brand new ?
You already made up your mind and don’t want to look for another so congrats are in order.
From what I have read in this thread you may want to ask them for the timer results and to provide you with a complete set of links. Good luck  |

I suggest you keep looking for new/mint or accept what you get from Bob.

Thanks for the replies, gents. I really thought "excellent" meant little superficial scratches, but I didn't think that would include dents. I guess I'm giving them more credit and assuming they set a higher standard in the luxury watch industry. This is only my second purchase in twenty years.
