I doubt a trusted seller here will do the same.

I also receieved a few years of extended warranty (full warranty coverage).

In my expereince, the "extra" money spent is well worth my peace of mind.
I'm sorry you had this difficulty with your watch, but I think its fair to say this type of problem is rare. If I bought that same watch from a Trusted Seller, and had that issue, and for any reason it would not be covered by warranty, I guess I would pay for service--with a portion of the savings I didn't pay to the AD in the first place.
