I understand his point, assuming that you are not a regular customer.
One cannot let his wares being rocked by everyone (I'm aware that you are not everyone) risking to see it dropped or worst.
On other hand, life is full of myths no matter if we are on watches or technology products.
I love to see/hear a sales pitch of watch sellers, explaining what they don't have a clue (coaxial escapement is my favorite) or, more fun, a kid on a Best Buy explaining to an average Joe/Mary the benefits of a SSD "disk". 99.99% of the time they got it wrong.
We, as Purists, face similar issues on any contact with watch sales people even on brand Boutiques.
My answers to your questions:
1) No
2) No, except if it has been "recently received a full maintenance by an expert watchmaker".
3) No. Take your precious money elsewhere.
Cheers,
Nilo
