Anyone else think the watch ads on PH represent much better value than TZ at the moment?

Particularly Omegas for some reason.

Examples:

£1250. Not mega cheap but still seems good value.

£825! eek Though not a minter.

Lack of bracelet puts me off, but these have been going for £800 on TZ.

Maybe it's just because it's my birth year watch hehe

Still, less than £3K for a GMT...

Don't really follow Rolex prices but these two are looking good at what the owners are asking for.

Buy them both, put the bracelet on the SMP and wear the chrono on the rubber.

Lovely jubbly.

^^ Good shout there JAYB.
That SMP Chrono does look incredible VFM.

With reference to the OP, I think TZ is generally expensive for 'high end' watches, there are some good deals, but most people seem to want top money for their watches. Sometimes I think they're pushing too close to what a dealer would want.

Am I imagining things, or has that Rolex (which has only been worn for special occasions) had a heavy polish at some stage?

Chrono @ £795!

Ridiculous value, all appears to be in order too.
