I bought mine from Ace Jewelers in Amsterdam. Great customer service, and they offer a Watchuseek member discount, just by asking. I don't know much about the tax situation for ordering outside the UK, so I don't know if they would be worthwhile for you. For myself the savings more than offset the taxes paid on arrival.
