    Hi folks,

    This arrived today but I don't seem to be bonding with it. Bulova moonwatch

    https://www.adverts.ie/casual/bulova-moonwatch/17733388

    Its in mint condition and the green strap is kinda funky on it. I thought i wanted a Chronograph but i'm not sure now - a lot easier to experiment with this rather than a speedmaster :)

    This is back up again for sale. Just can't see myself wearing it a lot so moving on. Comes with black di model ralley strap ad seen in last few pics

    It’s lovely! Any interest in a part exchange on either my Prometheus or Seiko BfK with a bit of cash? No worries if neither is of interest. I’m in Lusk also.

    Not at the moment, we should compare watches in the autumn when I'm back from the US

    That Steinhart is like the village bicycle around here! :D. I've flirted with purchasing it a couple of times but never sealed the deal. Problem is wrist time as well, I'm really a one-watch-at-a-time sort of a guy. Any interest in a a trade in of a Seiko Landshark?

    Seiko PADI Turtle is still for sale, which really surprises me

    So are the Borealis rubber straps. They really are good value. I'm wearing the original, an Isofrane, right now (retails at $180 and no discounts to be found anywhere) and while it is better, there isn't all that much in it either...

    Price is 5k, added 10% to adverts to allow for haggling

    Can voucher for this - their version 1 was terrible (a bit of an exaggeration - it's was meh) - but their version 2 is supple and wear great, I've never had an isofrane so can't compare but can't see how the quality could be much more improved over the Borealis straps (genuine rubber though probably not natural).

    Hi,

    Would anyone here have sold a watch on Chrono24 before? I've made a sale and the buyer's money is in escrow account. They're in Switzerland (non-EU), but I can't figure out if An Post will take it or not (An Post website says 'jewelry' won't be insured if sent by registered post. Jewelry is, in turn, defined as including watches that are "entirely or mainly composed of gold, silver or platinum or other precious metal".

    It certainly isn't made up of any of these - it's 'only' a Tag Heuer Monza...

    If you post a watch with an post outside of Ireland its not insured, best bet is to drive to the north if you can and use Royal Mail depending on the value

    Royal Mail is superb for sending within the UK, but I think the price goes up a lot to the EU.

    Captainsatnav - check this thread for more info, but the tl;dr from my experience is to either drive up to Norn Iron, or pay through the nose using Mail Boxes etc in Dublin city centre. I could not find a courier who would take a watch, fully insured.

    Got my Merkur today (Seiko Tuna homage)

    Lovely watch, but I ordered it in blue and they sent me a black one. They suggested I send it back for a full refund, but that's a pain in the neck

    s-l1600.jpg


    Looks a lot more expensive than what they are. Gets great reviews, google it. Paid USD199 for it (EUR 185) - didn't get hit for customs on this one. If anyone wants to match that or come very close, they are welcome to the watch

    Hi guys, it was me who bought this Merkur off Unkel 5 months ago. I purchased two Barton straps for this watch, one white leather & one a green Nato strap. They look really good on it.
    It's a lovely watch but I just haven't been getting use of it. I wear Gshocks as a daily watch and I rarely get the occasion to wear the Merkur.
    Therefore I have decided to list it on Adverts tomorrow.
    Just giving the heads up to boardsies for first shout in case anyones interested. Im looking for €150 and that includes the two extra Barton straps.
