Guidance over buy pre-owned

Greeting helpful souls.

Can anyone please provide advice on buying pre-owned. What should I be wary of/looking out for?

Also what's the best way to verify authenticity & to confirm service history.

Here's one I've found.... your comments please:

I have the slightly older version of this 25860 (square deployant instead of AP-shaped, and square indicies at 3:00 and 9:00) and would say that the biggest selling points of this particular watch are the recent full AP service and box/papers. You can certainly find a ROC for less, but this watch will have new gaskets, etc. So that service alone is probably worth about $1500 USD. I don't know the seller, but everything pictured looks as it should.
