I've decided I definately want to go for an Overseas and I intend to buy a used one although finding a used example within budget in the UK is proving impossible.

I just wanted to know if it's worth paying extra for the Chrono model, out of choice I think it looks slightly nicer but then I do like the simplicity of the date model and can't decide which way to go.
Price wise I wanted to ask what they are both worth roughly?, does this seem about right for a date:

Then there's this Chrono which seems cheap?:

Ideally I'd prefer the white face too.

Are there any other sites where I might find some for sale in the UK?, because pickings are very slim.

Sweden is part of the EU, so VAT is already factored in, plus if they are an AD, then you've the manufacturer's warranty covering it – and it's new/unworn.
Govberg are not an AD, so the usefulness of their warranty is only if you're prepared to return to them if there's ever an issue.
Who do they use for servicing?
Do they cover postage both ways, back to you, or neither?

I prefer the date only version.
