Does anyone know if I'm likely to find a sub £1k Planet Ocean?

I'm talking a working watch in pretty much any condition. Scratches, dents, worn strap/bracelet, but ultimately still keeping time.

All the places I've looked have a wide variety of second-handers, but they're all in quite good condition and are attracting prices of at least £1.5k, more in most cases.

I suspect I'm asking too much, but if anyone can help you lot usually can!

Unlikely.... But not impossible...

I'd suggest it would be very well used, and no B & P, but if that doesn't bother you, there could be a chance...

Cheapest i've seen had been non bracelet versions for about £1300.

Thought it was probably the case. I'm off to Vegas next month so will trawl through their second hand watch shops t see if anything is available.

I've got a chrono, but I want to keep it in as good a condition as possible, so was looking to have the smaller version as a beater. I figure it could work out cheaper in the long run than visiting the G-Shock thread again!

I managed to find one at £1150, from a very motivated seller... ie he was skint. It was about 18 months ago..it was 45mm on the rubber strap..
