I don't see why not..........but I need a definitive shopping list with serious punters..... and do not want to be running back and forth to my trade contact with speculative quotes.......Notwithstanding the fact I will have to pay up front as well

That's the kiddy Neil. :thumbsup

Thanks for the offer Iain. I'm in no rush so will probably wait till Jan/Feb when I should be able to get a better deal. I'll give you a shout then if that's ok. :cheers

Cheers

Iain,

100% serious and committed to buying. Like Dan, I'm in no rush and would be prepared to wait until Jan/Feb or whatever to secure maximum discount.

Will drop you a message sometime when I know for sure what I'm after :thumbsup

Bought a new watch today while mine is in for a service. Ended up with the new Tissot T-Touch expert in titanium. It's a brilliant watch!
Very impressed and the expert deals with a few of the complaints of the original T-Touch (bigger face, 100m water proof, backlight etc).

My name is Paul, and I am a watchoholic...It's been 6 months since my last purchase.

Got an Omega Seamaster (Black face), keeps terrible time so I end up using my G-Shock most days!!
Also got my dad's old RAF issue pilots' watch from 1960, when the supplier was IWC!!

A friend sent me this link today.

http://www.urwerk.com/watches_200.asp

Never heard of Urwerk before, and not sure about the styling, but what an amazing piece of kit. The winding system is regulated by air, courtesy of the small turbines within the watch.

Great video clip of it here too : http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=cVTbqeff1RQ

Prices go up to a cool $200,000 depending on the model :shock:
