EDIT - Ergh sorry, "Buying an Omega Seamaster..."

After a trip out with the daughter today I stopped by Beaverbrooks to look at an Omega Seamaster but that has potentially become a very expensive diversion.



I don't have huge wrists (6.75") nor have I ever wanted a divers watch but this is really great and I'm getting one.

Anyway, Chrono24 has lead me to a reseller in The Netherlands called http://www.certerawatches.nl/en/ and I've a couple of questions, if I may.

1. What's the deal with buying from the EU in terms of import and taxes.
2. Has anyone used these guys before?
3. Can anyone with contacts on here match their price?

Cheers all, rather excited wink

Thanks guys. I did just find http://www.swisswatchesdirect.co.uk/watch/212.30.4... but it looks like the shop in Blackburn may be a better idea and I like the bricks and mortar approach when spending so much money.

Cheers and good week.

Thanks for the advice, everyone. I placed my order this morning with Iconic Watches so look forward to adding something to the wrist check thread in a couple of weeks.
