·I am shopping for my first heirloom quality watch (a specific model of Aqua Terra) and have come across one that is advertised as unworn with a 2011 date on the warranty card.
Is there any reason to be concerned that the watch has been sitting for over a decade? Should I insist that the watch be serviced, or at least factor in the cost of a service to what I’m willing to pay? Is there anything else I should be concerned about? FWIW this is being sold by one the blue chip grey dealers so I have no concerns re: authenticity.
I have to admit, the idea of finding one that is NOS is pretty compelling but I want to make sure I’m not missing something.
Thanks!
