Selling my Santos De Cartier
It’s in great condition purchased 2022 full warranty till 2030 and full transferable.
The watch has the quick change strap system which is fantastic, one minute to change between the bracelet and the included rubber strap with deployment.
There are no dinks dents or scratches, there are a few light swirls to the bracelet.
There are two spare links
All boxes are perfect



Many thanks Paul

And Sold

***SOLD*** G-Shock GMW-B5000TVB-1ER. Purchased last year and complete with box, instructions, spare links etc. Other than very minor marks where the clasp hits the first link, I can’t see anything of note.

What is 'RMSD"?
Royal Mail Special Delivery
Would their insurance actually cover an expensive watch?

I only as as they lost an item of mine last year.

They said it had been returned to sender and wouldn't entertain any claim.

I pleeded with them to investigate it, heard nothing.

Wouldn't ever trust post again with an expensive item
I sent my Omega away for repair to an indy. It was sent and returned using RMSD.

I knew which day it was due back and just missed the postie, so I went looking for them. The postie, who was aged about 13, was carting all the mail for their round in a little pull-along trolley thing. When I found them a few streets away, they had left the trolley completely unattended at the end of the road and were carrying the post for that road to deliver it. My watch, albeit in an anonymous-looking box, was sat in an open side pocket of the trolley, such that I was able to pick it up and wait for the postie to come back to the trolley when I said "that's for me" and took it home.

A well-known PHer once offered to lend me something on a SOR basis, which he sent via RMSD. It never arrived, and I initially had some slightly awkward conversations with him as to whether I'd actually received it or not.

I don't know what would be a better option than RM but there has to be one.

DX was always used in the legal profession, may be worth a try.

Trouble is none of the well-known parcel delivery firms are any better or safer - your package is still going to get thrown around and at risk of being ‘lost’.

Anybody got a Heuer Carrera they are wanting to part with? not a TAG Heuer just a Heuer!

I am thinking about parting with my Tudor GMT pepsi with black dial.

Limited edition undone X Kevin lions watch, full set including the original Ltd edition print, I think I've worn this twice! Price includes RMSD. £330

This is growing on me, I find myself strangely tempted! Never been a fan of chronos and don't own any, but the subs on this are well camouflaged!

That’s amazing, it doesn’t surprise me at all though.

My wife is friends with a lady from Qatar and while they were at university together she bought her husband-to-be a watch from Harrods and posted it to Qatar with Royal Mail. It got lost in the post and she didn’t get the money back. My wife didn’t know what watch it was but you can almost guarantee it was a decent loss because she is from a wealthy family and was distraught.

No excuse for losing the parcel but the maximum insurance for international parcels with RM is £250 so it was more than likely uninsured unless she took out third party insurance.

Hi all.

Seen another Seiko diver I want so am selling my Seiko Monster SRPD25 to make way.

I’ll pop this link in for the specs to keep my post tidy: https://www.seikowatches.com/us-en/products/prospe...

Watch also comes with an official Seiko silicone band. This is the same band that comes on the SRPD27, but in blue. I liked the silicone band on the 27 - which I bought first - but returned it a couple of days later for the sunburst blue dial and bracelet of the 25. I then added the band at a later date, giving best of both worlds smile

Watch has hairline marks on bracelet and clasp from wear; I’ve tried to capture it best I can in one of the photos.

Watch comes with everything from the original purchase; warranty card, “swing tags” (if you can call them that hehe), spare links, etc.

Looking for £275 which will include postage.

Cheers,
Dan















Still available if anyone is interested.

Mine is having a service and refurb at the moment. I’ve not worn a watch at all for over a year now, so if it doesn’t get worn once it’s back it might be for sale later in the year. Lovely thing, but it’d be a shame for it to stay in a drawer.
