Re: The Bargain Hunters Thread

Re: The Bargain Hunters Thread

Some major discounts on Omega at Pragnells. 20 to 40 percent in Speedies, SMP300, SMPc and ATs plus devilles and so on.

The green world timer is my favourite!

Re: UK Budget

I have found the answer to my question now. I had wondered about the tax position on personal pension pots after the budget. Previously they haven't been counted for IHT purposes. Now they will be in a couple of years time. When you take the money out you have always had to pay income tax on the mo...

@Bahnstormer_vRS Guy IIRC MF indicated that there was an initial supply at launch ready end of November. All sold already, or spin? He also indicated they can produce 750 BCs a month and current wait list from order to delivery is approximately 6 weeks (subject to my comment above about having an i...

Re: Canary Island watch.purchase

If anyone is interested - List prices seem to be about 10% less than Europe (including Rolex from what I could make out eg Explorer 2 was €9k - I was pretty much offered an Explorer 1 or Explorer 2 (the lady said if I was serious she would ask the manager - seemed promising). They also had bi metal ...

Re: Canary Island watch.purchase

Hi Steve I'm quite partial to the new IWC Pilot watch. I've discovered, courtesy of a handy leaflet left in the hotel room, that it's some kind of VAT tax haven here (7%) so with an AD discount it might compensate for the 20% due on arrival back in blighty. I'm always susceptible to the hint of a ba...

Good evening everyone

Just curious if anyone has any recommendations for a watch purchase in sunny Gran Canaria? Also a quick picture below taken in situ this afternoon that made me chuckle...

Thanks in advance!

Re: Experience of the eBay Authentication Service

I've shared previously, but I had a terrible experience with eBay "passing" a watch advertised as new/unworn but with missing bracelet links (which cost £100 each to replace, and would have been required for my wrist size). Despite sharing extensive documentation of the issue I hit a bric...
