I have this little Tandorio W10 and it is cool-looking and keeps great time (+5 SPD). I have been wearing it literally everywhere, including fixing my car, for 6 months. It says 'Water Resistant 200M' on the back and has a screw-down crown and screw-down back, and is overall kinda sturdy. I have taken it swimming in the pool a few times without issue but never strapped it to the outside of my bathyscaphe. Is making a 200-meter watch this trivial?

I paid ~$45 for it and it has kinda made me…

Let's say, hypothetically, that you inherit an old Rolex with no box or papers or what-have-you. You want to sell the watch and you accept an offer. Is there a consensus method for packaging and shipping it? I assume it involves bubble wrap, etc., but for something costing a few thousand dollars, is there an expectation of a velvet sachet tied with a bow in a leather-bound box?
