I’ve still got a POP Swatch 😎
Not really a great deal of help but I walked into the swatch store in Barcelona a few weeks ago there were no queues, no fuss, no other customers and they had 3 different models in stock.
The hype...
just been in the Swatch store in Barcelona, well it’s a concession in the large department store but they had the Tiffany and 2 others, no queues no fuss, the Tiffany looks a bit girly to me, the...
I see the RRP has now gone up, £218 now, and €260 in Spain, I was going to have a look for one while I’m in BCN next week but if scalper prices don’t rise and the week pound it’ll be cheaper on eBay
I would imagine quite a folk would fill up a bottle of truckers tizer. ;)
How big is his family?
Ignoring the bonkers ebay listings at £10k+ I'd say a realistic flip value on Sunday when the stores are sold out and the online store isn't live yet is about £500 so that's...
Well, what they want isn't on sale until Saturday morning, and I very much doubt the shop wants them inside until then.
It amazes me that anyone would pay enough over list to make spending 24 hours sitting outside a shop a viable way to earn a living.
From another forum, apparently the queues dispersed after this was...
That's two of us then.
Torn between the 'sensible' Moon or the more 'fun' Mars, but will wait until I'm next in London anyway, but it's not something that happens that regularly, or when they hit...
Would want to see them in the flesh but torn between the Moon and Mars…
Still own a few swatches from the 90’s and at £207 I’d be very tempted, but the whole limited stores thing is a bit of a pain,...
The Bank Job, set in 1971 sees Jason Statham wearing a reissue TAG Heuer Monaco, not the worlds biggest blunder but it’s still wrong.
Interesting but pointless fact....the Rolex AD is the only one ‘over water’

Interesting but pointless fact....the Rolex AD is the only one ‘over water’
I bought a Daytona 14 years ago and I had to wait longer than a year then! I think it was nearer 3 years.
If it’s something you really want just find a local AD that’s prepared to accept names, when...
I’d certainly be trying the dealer I’d bought from previously first, go in with the Mrs, her wearing the watch, strike up some conversation ideally with the same salesperson about how now you fancy...
Maybe the OP can just ‘mis-spell’ the dealers name a little...
North Notts, no reputation what so ever.....I hope, and try to avoid Nottingham if I possibly can...although I’ll be passing through the train station tomorrow
I would expect so, or at least in house or approved specialist, but how much is a service on a quartz watch, anything more than a battery, a new seal and a polish is taking the mick a bit, less than...
I’ve since had all the valuations in from WF and on the same watch as Goldies valuation they are over double, still a massive spread between their sell price but I guess it would get a service and a...
It makes you wonder where they actually get any stock from, just how desperate do you need to be to accept an offer like that?
Can you imagine just how low the offer would be on a quartz TAG or...
Very true, but a bit like part exing your car instead of selling it on AutoTrader or eBAY, it would have been very easy to walk into the local Goldies with a bag of 4 watches and walk out with 2 new...
There doesn't seem to be a week go by with TAG issuing some LE of some description, although I have got my eye on one of them, I'm just not happy paying the LE Tax over the price of a standard...
The 2 Rolex values are 'fair' although a little comical in comparison to what they have the same watches up for sale at, no problem with them making a bit of money but 25-30% seems a little strong,...
Breitling B1, still waiting for a response from Watchfinder, they were quick back on the 2 Rolex values, but not the Breitling or the Seamaster.
Now I was expecting a low ball offer but they really kicked low AND hard.
I had a brainwave of part chopping 4 existing watches against 2 available from Goldies, based on Watchfinder ‘for sale’...
My B1 has had a couple of batteries in it's life, never been near one of the AD's or Brietling, usually trust it to my local trusted family friend 'watch guy' who as it happens is fully 'Brietling...
