Polished pre-owned Breitling

If a watch is originally all high polish, like the Navitimer, should I care if it has been re-polished before I buy pre-owned? Does this issue matter less with Breitling?

Doesnt matter at all. And really doesnt matter on any watch. Look at paul newmans watch for example. Do you think anyone cares how polished or perfect the edges are lol

If Breitling service center does it on their regular service is because it doesn’t hurt the value, on the contrary I think it ads value to the watch.
