I think the seller should take off his gloves and put a few fingerprints on his watch.

So Rolex puts a new dial on a vintage watch and it is still worth big bucks. That is like repainting the Mona Lisa and want the same money for it.

Well its certainly not a 20k watch... hence 'make an offer' button.

It's more like if The Mona Lisa was repainted by Leonardo himself. It is still not the same painting but it is the same quality by the same artist, just not from the same era.
