They're not much different on the price, they're not authorised dealers, you will probably get stung for import duties and i can walk into Jura watches at any time if i have a problem.

Oh...and while i think of it, if anyone does buy a Ball watch then go to their own website and register it with them. If you do you get an additional 1 year Ball warranty extension (and they make you a member of their Explorer's Club).
All in all worth it for 2 minutes of your time!

thanks for the info... I like the diver 2 pretty much but its black face, have two black face watch already on my collection. Fireman ionosphere chrono has white face and uses vajloux 7750 compared to diver 2 i think uses 2839-2... il still take my time in what ball to get, maybe next year. Just ordered my c8 coming up soon.... Does anyone know the status of the c8's ?

The things they do......

Congrats Village. You know you have made a great choice.

Now enjoy!

Village, apologies for late congrats, I didn't see this until now and didn't realise you'd taken the plunge...and what a fantastic choice you've made. A very elegant design . I must admit, I'm a regular on the Jura website and there is a whole bunch of watches on there that I'm tempted by..

Cheers guys...have to say it's had more than its fair share of wrist time lately. It's probably a good job the C8 is delayed 'cause otherwise there may be a bit of a dilemma!! Which to wear!!
And i must stop looking at Jura.....i wonder if they will have a January sale
