Sweaty wrists
When you see some photos posted displaying some hairy sweaty wrists, does it turn you off buying pre-owned with that image in your mind

Are you referring to wrists with ferret-like hairgrowth??

I don't buy pre-owned (unless it is no longer available) for this reason and many others. I like to be the first.

I understand your OP is just for humor but I could care less about what the previous owner's hygiene was. That's what soap and water are there for!
Now, if say he was a sheep proctologist who never took his watch off and lived "Down under", I would have to pass!:

That's exactly why I wear my preowned 5513 on a nato. This way, I have very little contact with the watch itself...
Yeah I know, I know...no chance of hairy sweaty wrists here |
