He didn't write the headline about it being "unworn," and he didn't describe it that way as part of a sales description.

Also, the sticker wear is really besides the point. Let's say he had taken the sticker off completely when it was brand new, like a lot of people did/do. We'd assume the watch was NOS, and the sticker would be a non-issue.
Thank you, Aaron.
