Morning (US time) all,

I believe this IWC is out of production, thus guys like Dom H can't necessarily find one:

http://www.thewatchsource.co.uk/item/IWC/Vintage-A...

Can anyone comment on that price and let me know whether they have used The Watch Source before?

This is for my best mate, so I don't want him using a site that's dodgy (though my gut feeling is this one is ok).

If anyone knows of any new/ NOS/ VGC 2nd hand models available, please let me know!

Thanks,

Dom

I've never used them, but I've seen the site referenced on watch forums, so I'd say they're ok.

I can't comment on the Watch Source but the price looks OK going by the few on Chrono24:

It's a few hundred £ more than that on chrono24, but that's to be expected. Also I'm guessing that it'll be based in the UK so no extra costs. I would agree with benny.c.

He is based in London, as are they, so risk seems pretty low if he pays using CC.

So, I think he'll gor for it.

Thanks for your help, chaps.
