Buying A Pre Owned V Series Deep Sea Without Papers?

I have done business with this gentleman in the past with no issues. I can pick up a Deep Sea V Series at a very good price however the piece comes with box, instructions, etc. but without paperwork. Watch is also guaranteed to be in excellent condition or money back and will be polished prior to shipping.
What concerns if any should I have with regards to this purchase? I may sell the piece in the future but I am not a flipper.
Thanks in advance.

Hi there Onearmman :-)

Welcome to TRF

The paper work that your talking about is the original warranty paper with the serial model, country code and the AD/place of purchase, when it all boils down that exactly all it is, a warranty paper, and most of the time these are not kept, but are easily replaced with the service warranty paper from an RSC.

There are quite a few collectors who would prefer to see the original papers but would also take the watch with the service papers too.

Hope this helps and good luck with the purchase



Dave.

If you trust the person your buying it from then I would say go for it.You can get paperwork once you send it in for servise.Just know that if there is any problems as to ownership,they will KEEP that watch.Good luck.
