    If you can get that Rolex for 3.5 to4k, I'll have 10 (that's the white gold model).

    We'll at least do it justice with a proper pic so not a poor fake!

    Correct me if I'm wrong but as far as I know the Smurf (all blue Sub) is only available in white gold so it's in the range of €30.000 +/- a few thousand..

    if the Carrera is what you want why not just get that?

    I suppose I'm just wondering if there was a nice secondhand Zenith or Rolex I would be interested. The only problem is that I don't actually have access to the tz classified forum.

    In terms of buying a new Tag Heuer where would you buy same? I know I could buy of Weirs or Sherrians but I'm wondering if there are other jewellers (possibly online) who would offer better value?

    Thanks.

    i'm not sure if you're aware, but there's a good few sites where you can buy second hand watches.

    two that come to mind are in the uk
    http://www.chronomaster.co.uk/
    http://watchfinder.co.uk/

    both do zenith and rolex.

    best guess is to find a style that you like and ask some questions

    for a limited edition its more tricky, sheerans offered me 10% off the jack heuer that you like though

    id also contact the likes of watchfinder.co.uk

    If you want a s/h rolex what about the brand new explorer 2 on adverts or a sub c, you are looking at circa €5k for either

    I got my Tag off a jeweller in Malaga. Granted i was on holidays and i had already been to him before to pick it out, but i saved about a grand compared to prices here.

    Buy this Verona, scratch the itch and add a few more for the price of the 80th anniversary. Also try watches.co.uk or watchfinder as advised. They may not have it in stock but can source through their netowrk of ADs. It's a 3,000 piece edition so not very limited and I doubt it will sell well through the AD network.
