    Hi folks,

    long time reader of the forum but never posted. After a lot of looking and thinking I am hoping to pick up a Breitling Superocean Heritage. Budget is c.2.5 -3k

    I found one on Chrono24 https://www.chrono24.com/breitling/-breitling----a1732124g717154a-ss---200m472--id21323721.htm

    any thoughts on why the above is so cheap?

    are there any watch outs that I need to be aware of if I am buying from Japan? I know I will have to pay VAT & Customs.

    appreciate any thoughts/views.

    Thanks

    By the time you factor in import duties, VAT and shipping, stuff from Japan isn't that cheap. Also, if the paperwork isn't right, it will get sent right back.

    Also, Chrono24 prices ar often anything from 10-20% above what you see elsewhere, due to the assurances fo the escrow service.

    Is it much cheaper than those elesehwere?

    Thanks for the reply.

    On Chrono24 there is a difference of about $300 between a Japanese and Spanish dealer. I suppose you pay that extra for the security of the escrow account, but if I can save 10% ill be happy.

    Any other sites worth looking at?
