I am guessing it was worn only in special moments.. remind me of a previous thread of highly misrepresentation of the article.. the seller said it was "rarely worn" but in perfect condition..

It was no misrepresentation when you say "hardly worn " if the owner wasn't wearing it when he was hammering the watch ...
