If I’m buying for myself, a minor flaw might be noticeable to 1 in 100 people so I really don’t care as long as it’s disclosed or shown in pictures.

I’m with you on this one, it’s definitely annoying to buy a watch brand new with stickers with a small scratch on it, but at the end of the day the watch will get scratched after you wear it once or twice at dinner. This is why I am a tremendous fan of buying a preowned watch saving the money and have someone else put a hairline her to audit. Some people don’t even peel off all the stickers. I just feel bad for the seller, because I have a relationship with him and he ordered the swatch in for me special and already put my father’s name on the card.
