Guys I'm looking to get a Cartier tank francaise 'W51028Q3, with pink mother of pearl face, for er in doors but struggling to find a shop with any stock.

I saw this web site and was a little concerned with the 'order for Christmas' banner...!

That'll probably be Xmas 2007 as well.

The W51028Q3 currently retails at £2950 and not the £1850 as indicated, with a price increase on the way.



Sorry...

According to their site, they look to be out of stock also.

The current RRP for the W51028Q3 is apparently now £2,950 according to http://www.iconicwatches.co.uk

The price on the Empire site seems very cheap in comparison, and iconic are not usually far out price-wise.

Another thing which puts me off, as well as being wished Merry Christmas at the back end of April, is the lack of contact details.

Hopefully someone may come along to allay your fears, but I'm afraid I wouldn't be touching them. frown

ETA Doh...beaten to it by a proper dealer. frown

The best thing you can do is speak to Dom (2 posts above) about getting you one.




(I'm Paul off SELOC who sent you over here btw)

I bought my Tissot PRC200 from them.

Perfectly good company to deal with as far as it went, ie smoothly.

I suspect they've stopped stocking that watch and it just happens to be lurking in their 'catalogue' somehow.

I noticed the xmas banner when I ordered it.

I have used empire watches to buy a Tissot PRC200. When I sent it to Tissot for strap repairs they called to inform me it was fake. They said they have had many problems with empire watches.
