Thing to Consider Before Buying a Pre-Owned AP!!!

[Noriega]

Hey guys, got this 15300 pretty used. F serial. Running +7,8. Just noticed the odd color on one of the wheels in the movement. Its more vrass colored than other parts. Dont know the service history as well. Can someone point out if everything is ok, or advice how should i proceed?

From images I see of caliber 3120, the difference in the golden hue between the gold rotor and the gear you are pointing out, correspond to the appearance of your watch. Looks OK to me. When you’ll eventually send it in for service at APSC, they would identify any components that are not original. But I’d say your movement is OK.
