They might be fine but the dealers I listed offer a warranty with the watch as well. (Philippes gives a 1 year warranty and Beverly Hills Watch co gives a 2 year warranty).

Kind of makes me feel better about purchasing a used watch. For instance, when I purchased the Breitling from them I noticed it was running slow and I was able to take it in for free.

Then there is the other point of view that the savings gained from purchasing on the forums may cover the cost of maintenance..... I just felt a bit more comfortable purchasing from the store I guess when there are soo many great fakes out there.(personal preference)
