Buying "New" watches off the BAY?

[Kentucky]

Im no stranger to the bay..Lisa of course sells a lot there and ive bought a lot from the bay..Ive been looking at the Casio PAW 1500's and of course the lowest prices are on the bay..The ones Im referring too all have return policys and are suppose to be 100% authentic..The only thing is that all of these lower priced 1500's dont come in the standard green pathfinder boxs..They come in a generic blue/white casio box..I emailed one seller and he assured me they are new and authentic but to be honest Im still just a little put off..Sellers have well over 99% feedback but i dont want to get stuck with a refurb..Am I being picky over this non-pathfinder box or is this simply a part of the "grey market" as they call it?
Any opinions appreciated..

Stick with Amazon if possible, you get a 2 year (unconditional) warranty too

You could contact the manufacturer and ask if there is a reason for the different color boxes.

When my dad worked for Leica, it was often the lack of a US warranty that allowed sellers to lower the price...great deal until it breaks.
