It's a good shop. They've taken good care of a few other watches. I wouldn't expect them to honor a manufacturers warranty. You're right - "checked out" would be noise to me too at a shop I don't know. But I trust them. Appreciate the input on used price as % of new retail. 50% off seemed a little too optimistic to me as well, but I have no knowledge of watch aftermarket. And I know nothing about the brand. Took another look at the shop and the face is just too big for me.
