Me no likey dents either lol! Even if it were reflected in the price, I'd rather pay a bit more for one that was in better condition. Normal wear scratches are fine, but no dents.

Congrats on the new watch!

Mine has a dent or ding here and there... but I put them there. The occasional arm into the door/door frame. It's in RSC-NY getting serviced so I'm curious to see what stays/gets polished out.

This obsession with bits and bobs is why there is an expensive e-bay market with such items today, and why savvy sellers go out of their way to get them whether they are original to the watch or not... They know they can sell a questionable watch if they have a "full set", or hustle the Internet shopper for a few extra bucks..
I totally agree. Its all about the watch to me. The other crap just sits up in my closet. If I'm buying used the seller and watch condition are really the only important thing to me!!!!
