Why worry? There's virtually no risk buying on eBay. If it's not as described, you simply file a not as described claim and get your money back.
Can't comment on the seller but make sure you factor in any possible VAT and custom charges you may be hit with when it enters the UK, might not end up being the bargain you hoped for.
I would look to buy from a seller in the UK, makes life simpler, given customs, and the shipping time.
I would not buy a Apple Watch on eBay. Wait for the new Apple Watch.
Since these folks are still apparently doing quite a bit of business and nobody seems to have answered the specific question:
Long and short of it, it's true that your money is safe with eBay's guarantees, but I would worry with this seller that you could be wasting your time.
In my anecdotal experience with them, they were legit in that they sent a product with the specs they said (a 2019 MBP with particular specs, the amount of battery cycles stated, etc.). However, they wildly overstated its condition: the "like new" product had a dent to the corner that slightly damaged the backlighting, and obvious liquid damage to the keyboard. They said it passed their evaluation and they never would have mailed out a computer with even the dent, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ They even scrimped on the power supply, sending an 87W rather than this model's 96W. For that, they offered a partial refund of $20.
Luckily, they apparently also missed that it was still covered under AppleCare+, so an incident fee covered everything. I opted to keep it rather than going for a refund, since I'd be getting really like new components, and didn't want to hunt for the exact configuration in that condition again. Left negative feedback since they didn't give me the item in anything like the stated condition, which they got removed, keeping their 100% rating.

I was scammed in 2020 buying an IPad Pro A12X
eBay didn’t take responsabilities because the price (for insurance) was under 1 000€.
I had to use my credit card insurance then attack eBay in justice
So now I avoid any contact with ebay !
Enjoy when you will be blacklisted bye customer service 😖 and eBay never deleted the seller
