Nice, sapphire crystal. Caliber 8200 movement, which is a classic... No, not Rolex quality for sure, but better than a ton of others.

Same model as OP, but with the blue dial which is popular. Same seller. Slightly more expensive at $167.99 with coupon code OFFICIAL20OFF.
These refurbs seem to be a killer deal if you were waiting for a Citizen deal. Lot of watches on sale with coupon codes.

Description in the eBay posting is different than the posting model. Description says "Citizen ED8112-52A Watch. Movement: Quartz Features: 3 Hand with Analog Day/Date. Case size: 38 mm." We sure that this is the NH7531-50E model?

Based on the reviews for this item with pictures, it appears to be the 42mm watch listed. Additionally, it looks like there are free returns with the seller paying return shipping if anything doesn't work out.

You're buying a big used quartz watch. Make sure that's what you want.
It's not quartz, it's an automatic.

So what exactly do they mean when they say to expect blemishes or faint scratches but it has never been worn? Isn't that kind of untrue, or are there a ton of watches that get damaged before they are sold?

It's actually mineral crystal and not sapphire crystal. This is not my area of expertise, my understanding is that it takes diamond to scratch sapphire crystal. Nevertheless, this is a great price.

AquaBike4870 Is it easy to adjust the watch band yourself?
Yes, it's relatively simple. Before COVID, it used to cost about $3–$5 in NYC Chinatown to have someone at a watch repair stand do it. In 2021, I ended up paying $15 at a store since I couldn't find any of the street stands anymore. That's what led me to buy a band-repair kit on Amazon for about $10, and I've changed numerous bands since then.

The only issue I've had with the kit is that the rubber on the hammer gets dents easily (so longer smooth)—though I may have been hitting it too hard. Another challenge is the small sleeves that come off the link whenever I remove the spring bar; I can never get the sleeves to go back on. Fortunately, I haven't had any problems, and none of the bands have come off. I take pretty good care of the watch, and I don't wear it during sports or anything strenuous.

They have been on ebay since 2016 and I have purchased numerous watches from them with no issues. The most recent purchase for $184 [ebay.com] looks brand new with tag, plastics on the case and paper inserted on the band as you would expect on a brand-new watch minus the Citizen wase box. I have no reservation when it comes to placing an order with them.

Thank you for the correction! I'm curious as to the reason the seller had it listed as mineral crystal "Features: Mineral Crystal" instead of copying from the Manufacturer's description "Crystal: Sapphire Crystal".

I've purchased over 20 watches from this very seller. Not a single mark on any of them and not one single defective watch. None of these have been worn. I received 3 from them just today. You won't be disappointed.
