I bought a sandwich/wrap just before the supermarket closed the other week for a whopping £0.09p (reduced, it would seem in hourky increments for £2.49) .. photographic evidence available on request :-)

Watch wise though, can't beat a reliable Seiko 5, esp for that price! Mine was £60 so seems I was done! ;-)

That seiko is an absolute bargain. They do say everyone should have a Seiko 5 in their collection......

This silver dial 5 is £29

I'd also like to bang on about how awesome the Amphibia/ Komanderskie is. Better crystal than Hardlex and dive rating.

Some great prices on that site, I like the Baischmidt range.

This watch really caught my eye. So much so that I started shopping around! I love the look on a brown strap (not the same model, but similar)....
