Now I've been a member on PH for quite a while and I've usually been satisfied lurking in General Gassing, the Lounge etc etc. Around a week ago I thought I'd have a look in the watch forum, I don't know why but I did. Well, thanks a lot, it's cost me £150!

I came across the Werners thread and after 4 days of deliberating I went and ordered an Astroavia R4.

It's obviously not the most expensive thing ever but I'm really happy with it and I'm chuffed with the watch. So yes I'm now skint and £150 down. Happy I visited this forum, oh yes!!

Ditto. The very same thread has done me for an S8.

From what I've seen (and I've not taken the plunge yet) you've done very well to get in and out of the watch forum for only £150

For God's sake don't joint TZ-UK them.

That place can put a serious dent in your savings.

I ordered a V2 from Andy Pens a few months ago and they are genuine.
He does not have the full range listed any more so these may be existing stock at the old prices, I think that Astro Avia have put their prices up recently.

Your right there! After reading about other people's collections on here I could have spent a lot more on that site. And can people stop posting links to other watches, my wallet is getting a bit worriedlaugh

On a side note though, I don't know if anybody else is as sad as me, but I keep pretending to rest my hand on my chin or whatever, just so that I can see my new watch being revealed from under my shirt sleeve. I really should get back to work nowtype
