Hello, I found a nice pre-owned Panerai to buy and the seller sent me some pics and one of the pics showed a very weird scratch in the back. Not sure exactly what happened but if you're in my shoes, would you buy it? Thanks.

Goin2drt · 6 January 2021, 11:49 PM

Definitely. No worries there.

If the price is right.

Wouldn’t bother me.

enjoythemusic · 7 January 2021, 12:25 AM

i'd buy it if that's a model i wanted and priced accordingly. Scratches like that are nothing, and hopefully your timepiece will get MANY more of them due to daily wear

calatravato · 7 January 2021, 12:33 AM

Sure. Just make sure it’s reflected in the price. You don’t spend a lot of time looking at the caseback anyway, especially if it isn’t an exhibition caseback.

Cadi1 · 7 January 2021, 02:26 AM

it is in a place that would not bother me and not stop me from buying it.

samson66 · 7 January 2021, 02:30 AM

Wouldn't stop me at all. Maybe mention to the seller and see if he can take another 5% off the price due to the scratch?

Thanks and he agreed to 3% off more. The scratch is not as visible as it's comparing to what the pic shows. Thanks for the feedback

If that’s the only “issue” with the watch, go for it!!!

Jetrider · 7 January 2021, 02:19 PM

Doesn’t ping my ocd at all.

epicurus · 7 January 2021, 04:10 PM

i would easily have a few more in a weeks time....so yes

EdmundGTP · 8 January 2021, 04:45 AM

If it bugs you, a few careful minutes with a fiberglass scratch pencil would likely have that scratch nearly invisible. Total non-issue.

Did you buy?

stockae92 · 9 January 2021, 09:06 AM

scratches on used watch doesn't bother me, as long as its reflected in the price.

also, the caseback edge looks good, its not like some one tried to open it with a leatherman tool :)

modernpiece · 11 January 2021, 04:20 AM

Sure I will buy it I have one before but I sold it.

brandrea · 11 January 2021, 04:23 AM

Congratulations in advance OP

BNA/LION · 11 January 2021, 06:31 AM

Scratch wouldn't bother me on back case. I'd Buy It!

77T · 11 January 2021, 08:48 AM

Now, of course, we need to see the “incoming” wrist pics.

bejzv · 11 January 2021, 09:02 AM

If the price is right I will definitely go for it.

Vesire · 15 January 2021, 06:48 PM

i would not bother either, its on the back, and such things happen, the watch is for wearing

danwang0520 · 15 January 2021, 06:58 PM

wouldn't worry me at all.....

onefishtaco · 15 January 2021, 07:35 PM

It depends on how much it bugs you personally. No it's not a big deal and you'll add your own scratches to it anyways... but sometimes you want to make all of them yourself! lol.
