Yeah, I can see your point on the description being misleading. I would judge the purchase solely on the pictures. Descriptions are full of subjective language that can lead in one direction or another. And in this case here, I can see scratches all over the watch. Photos of the side of the watch show case scratches. The bracelet shows considerable wear in my opinion. Which contradicts his opinion and description of "little wear". So as a potential buyer, I would discount his description straight away. And I'd put the photos in a photo editor and change the exposure, contrast, brightness, and another inverted to reveal the defects that are in the data but not visible in the screen. But that's just me... It's often difficult to reverse transactions once they occur, so do your own due diligence.

In the end, I'm not sure what this amount of wear is worth... or how much he is really taking it on the chin. I certainly wouldn't buy a watch from this particular seller. And I am sorry to hear that this deal is sour!

And it was a great of Robert to offer his services at no cost.
