They used to do BOGO or 20-25% off sales pretty often, but they cut back over the last year. This is a good one, I couldn’t pass it up.NationOfLaws wrote: ↑Sat Aug 05, 2023 12:43 am Thanks @ajax87. It appears to work one time per sale on the cheapest item in the basket, but that’s still really nice.

Carl @ GasGasBones 'retired' from strap making earlier this year but recently found a batch of his SPV1 straps and posted about them on Instagram.


I bought two on Thursday evening and they arrived today.

Rob at Stewarts of Leicester has a used Nomos Metro 38 reduced from £1500 to £995. I shall resist the exclamation mark but only just.

I had to look that up, as I wasn't familiar with the name. Allandale Road, apparently, (a bijou Leicester shopping area).
Enjoyable browse through the stock.

Re: The Bargain Hunters Thread
If anyone fancies one of the new 39mm Longines Legend Divers, for some reason the 15% discount code (BF15) seems to apply to them at Goldsmiths ...
Blue on NATO is £2850 (becomes £2442.50) and black or blue on bracelet or leather is £3050 (becomes £2592.50).
There's 3% topcashback on purchases with a voucher code, so another £70ish back.
You'd be buying brand new, on bracelet, for probably close to the secondhand market in a year's time.

Re: The Bargain Hunters Thread
Well this will have to be a little bit cloak and dagger, but a local jeweller we use has a nicely reduced ring in their Christmas sale. I have reserved it, and I will take my current and first wife to have a look at it, in the next day or so. Maybe Christmas is solved.

Re: The Bargain Hunters Thread
UNCLE SEIKO are holding a "12 days of Christmas" sale with 40% off selected products.
https://unclestraps.com/en-gb/pages/12- ... %3D.Ris4ii
I quite like Uncle Seiko bracelets and 40% off increases their appeal.
The straight end bracelets clearly fit anything of the same lug width but curved end links may require a bit of adaptation to fit a watch other than the one for which they're designed.

Well I can now show the ring, as my wife approved the capital expenditure. It was this one, picture from the Clogau Outlet Store, but purchased from a local jewellers. Clogau had a decent sale but things are leaving gradually. They also have 3 versions of a mechanical watches, I think?, but hardly any details. The watches have gone, now.
