Located in the 6 o'clock poition is a date window.With a polished stainless-steel bezel, screw-in crown and caseback, water resistance is rated at 150m/500ft.credit: Picture by Omega.ch

Help with purchase of used Calatrava 6000G
I am in the need of some urgent guidance from discerning Patek Phillippe owners. I am looking at buying a 2006 6000G, which seems to come at a good price being a tad over half of the current RRP. However, its case bears fine scratches, especially on the bezel, consistent with its age. The seller offered to have it professionally polished promising an as new outcome. The watchmaker charged with the task lightly polished one side of the case but declined to go further as he feared that a full polish would lead to a colour change. I have the opportunity to cancel the deal and am thinking on it overnight. This will be my first Patek and I am stretching the budget to buy it. Does one live with blemishes of the type especially at the price to be paid? Also, what to other members think of the the 6000G?
