Scratches

Even a new watch can have micro-scratches: obviously, the second-hand model will have specific signs of wear.

The overall look of the watch can be improved when a certified master polishes and services it.

If you are not ready to spend money on the watch before the sale, you should take pictures of the watch so that they show the watch as it is at the moment.

Case damage

Even the most durable watches can be damaged and have sure signs of wear on them. However, this is not the type of damage that does not allow to sell them to third parties. The clearer the picture of the watch you show to a potential buyer, the higher are your chances of a mutually beneficial deal.

Calibration

Simple rule - if you state that the watch is in a working condition, it should show the correct time. For how long? It should be precise for at least 24 hours.

Not working

That is life, and the end comes for all things one day. You can sell non-working watches on Qlekta.com but state it clearly in your listing.
