Safe sale meaning they ask the end buyer to not register the watch online under their account so as to not harm the initial buyer's relationship with their boutique. I assume this results in a lower asking price as it adds stipulations to the sale. Also makes sense why the listing is sitting longer.

Honest question - is this just on trust basis or is someone holding back the warranty card for a year and then sending it to the buyer? I get the ask but once I forked over tens of thousands for a watch, I'd want to make sure the ownership (even for insurance purposes) is in my name... |

And as messikens said, what’s there to prevent the buyer from registering the watch anyways? |

So dumb isn't it. You see that black panther for sale? Surely they can trace that to one of the 2 people that bought one.

I guess the only thing you can do to protect yourself is to make sure it has complete chain of title. Original purchasers' receipt from boutique, then a sales receipt to grey seller, and then a receipt from grey seller evidencing that you purchased the watch from him. |
