[Request] Buying Watches Online

Trotter · 2006-01-28 15:54:11

Just wondering if anyone can put me in the direction of a decent website for buying watches. Ive looked around town and they seem very expensive for a decent one. Im sure I could do better online somewhere. Im keeping an eye on ebay , maybe I'll spot something there.

Not sure what type of watch you are looking for but I have dealt with this guy quite a bit, for straps and stuff.

www.ashford.com comes from the States. You WILL get nabbed for VAT and DUTY by customs if they send it normal post to Ireland but if you get it delivered to someone in the states they can bring it with them when they come home.

www.watchfinder.co.uk are very good and most importantly they leave the serial numbers intact on them, which many retailers remove, and so destroying ur warranty/value in the process
