I am the second owner and have had the watch for several years. It never got much wrist time, as I seldom wear a dress watch and this one is far too nice for everyday wear in a work environment that can be a bit tough on watches. Also although ML states water resistance to 30 meters (3 atmos) it would not be a "water" watch and they don't advise prolonged contact with water. It is a beautiful and elegant dress or sporty casual watch though.
The sale is for the watch and extra strap only, it does not come with box or papers.Sales are final unless the watch is not as described. I would prefer sales within the CONUS, however I will entertain sales outside the CONUS. Within the CONUS, shipping is flat rate. Priority mail with full insurance, tracking and delivery signature confirmation. Outside the CONUS, the shipping will be at the exact cost of shipping, insurance and tracking. The watch will be declared for the full sales price on the customs declaration. USPS will not insure for a value less than the declared value, so please don't ask as I will not ship for less than declared value.
