Yes, immediate purchase is fine. I purchased this at an outlet in 2008 and have never had it overhauled. It broke down and stopped working. Although it varies from person to person, there are no noticeable scratches on the glass surface. There are quite a few scratches on the belt. Please note: This is being sold as a junk item, so I don't know if it can be repaired. The watch does not work, but please check the photos for external damage.
