The pricing of this watch is confusing.
I’ve seen it at full price £3k then in the sale @£1295 and now @£1498 in the clearance.
Anyone any ideas here?

I’m not 100% sure but I think the lowest price one was missing it’s COSC certificate.

That's interesting, I'm waiting on CW to advise whether they can locate my missing COSC certificate (I got the wrong one), for my C8PR. I'm hopeful they'll locate it, as I'd prefer to have it... however they mentioned knocking £50 off if they can't locate it in Switzerland. Perhaps there was more to this AL Deere at £1295, maybe it was "Nearly New" too :?

In fact, why am I hesitating... I should really be a prime candidate for this watch... I'll sleep on it for a few days, after all there are still a few left :lol:
What are you waiting for?! With your connection to 54 Sqn you have to have this watch. Joking aside, you won't be disappointed, if you can find it, it is worth the money. (Pictures when it arrives) :lol:
