    C38668EE-4CD2-4A55-83AB-91A4F88EC8BC.png need some advice as I think I found the one. It doesn’t come with a box or paperwork but does come with a blank international warranty card. What does this card do for me and is it legit? What questions should I be asking the dealer?

    A lot. That card proves nothing and there is nothing at all to suggest it came with the watch.

    Ask for pictures of the movement/caseback and for the serial number.

    Look closely at the case for signs of polishing (rounded edges and dulled groves).

    The MK40 has a sapphire crystal vs acrylic like it’s reduced brother.

    Ask for any service history or other paperwork.

    If no service history then plan on a full service in the near future.
