If it's worth it to you, then pay for it. We don't know if you're going to flip, wear, wait and see or what. I buy watches to wear them. I recently bought an SS Sky Dweller from an AD and I got the bezel protector, stickers, everything. Which I promptly removed and threw away. Wearing a watch with stickers seems absurd to me. I have very good experience with DavidSW

$1700 for stickers! No way I would pay a premium for something going in the garbage. Save your money.

Most answers here are valid but the difference between a 3186 Pepsi and a fully stickered 3186 Pepsi is quite a few $$$'s for better or worse.
Or a Subdate LV?

As for withholding the bezel protectors this seems strange to me as thy are not stuck on the bezel?

I think I have five each in the corresponding watch box when I bought the watch.

I would argue against the fact that stickers mean the watch has never been worn. I have seen a lot of watches (for example, in Asia) with most stickers still on, particularly on sides and lugs, but nevertheless quite worn. Nothing beats your own eyes examining the watch. Or dealing with a trusted seller who can give you an honest opinion about the watch if you cannot examine it personally.

That being said, I will gladly pay more for a better condition watch, with or without stickers.
