Be VERY, VERY careful on ebay. All new watches on ebay that are sold from dealers like authenticwatches, etc. are gray market watches that carry no factory warranty. I, personally, avoid these dealers at all cost, since their prices typically aren't that much better than buying authorized.
As for private sellers, there are a lot of fakes out there, so you really have to know what you are buying. If you find a particular watch on ebay but you aren't sure if it's authentic, post a link here BEFORE bidding and I'm sure someone will be able to help you out.
