The watch looked fine, but it wasn't running when I received it and the wrapping looked like it wasn't brand new but possibly like it had been repackaged.  It came with a battery just taped to the packaging.  I was able to open up the back of the watch, take out a battery that apparently wasn't working and put in the battery they had supplied.  The watch then started working.  I know the watch didn't cost a lot, but I certainly would've been embarrassed had I had the watch sent to someone as a gift.  I have bought other Geneva watches and none others have ever come in this condition.
