I should also note that the watch was essentially brand new but in the pre-owned cases. If I didn't know better, I would think that Tourneau was selling their new Daytonas as used to earn an extra buck.
It could very well be a "new" watch that someone bought and changed their mind or ended up trading in.

Also, some people find it more appealing to buy a used watch from Tourneau (w/ 2 year warranty) instead of saving a few bucks on 47th
