I guess it just depends on how you use the word "new". Im thinking of new vs old and you are thinking of new vs unused. When really the opposite of used is unused, not new.

I look at in if the thing comes with (or is eligible for) a new watch, car, appliance, etc. warranty, it's new and my expectations are in accordance with that. If it comes with a used watch, car, appliance, etc. warranty, it's not new, and again, my expectations of how (how well, how long, how reliably, how long before service is needed, etc.) it will perform/serve me are in line with that.
I don't go to a department store and refuse to buy a garment because it's last season's version. I am no different with other stuff. If I expressly want the current version because I care for some reason, then it's a different story. I didn't get the sense from the OP's OP that s/he has any preference re: this or prior season's version of a watch that otherwise looks performs the same way.
All the best.
