Whatdo you have...

[Nolar Dog]

Incoming?

I've been on a bit of a buying frenzy recently. Think I'm suffering from S.A.D and needed a bit of retail therapy

These should all land at Chez Dog within the next few days:

NOS vintage Citizen


Same again, different style:


Parnis Big Pilot in black PVD:


Vintage West End Watch Co. :


Orient Blue Mako:


Alpha PO-a-like:


Alpha GMT Master-a-like


Finally, Orange Monster:


Also, I'm going getting this at weekend as I have a gift voucher for a jewellers in town

Breil chronograph:


So... what've you been shopping for?

Wow nine watches incoming ND! Lucky you I like the west end one, different.

My Wife is 30 on Sunday and I've been hunting for a 1980 Omega for her for a while, couldn't find one but found this and it'll hopefully be here in the morning http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&am... Apparently they're new old stock, guy phoned my Wife after she emailed him via the bay to discuss the watch with her. He also refused to accept any extra postage costs to get it here tomorrow as it's her birthday How's that for service considering she'd already knocked him down £25 on the price!

My incoming watch came today! Went to pick up my Omega Seamaster PO

[cyberface]

I'm still waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting... for JLC in Switzerland to finish messing about with my watch and send it back to me

But I'm *really* enjoying the BHI tourbillon I got for Christmas... I thought it'd be either novelty-value or 'not as good as it looked in the pictures' - but hell no, it's bloody marvellous. And it's my most accurate mechanical watch...

Sadly finances (and that JLC) mean I'm *selling* watches, not acquiring new ones... but that's OK as I had too many to start with

[Ikemi]

An impressive bulk purchase there ND! I have nothing in the post at the moment - I'm still trying to decide!

[ShadownINja]

Wow. That's a lot of incoming!!

I like the first and the vintage.

Where did you get the Blue Mako from?? I've been looking for one of those off and on for the best part of 6 months, but don't want to pull the trigger for a US sourced one...

[fluffnik]

I just paid over the score for this:



It's a 1962 one which means it is (a) rare, and (b) the same age as me.

Thats a great set of incoming! I am liking that Parnis a lot! Have funds available but still trying to work out what to buy. I really need a dress watch...but that Parnis hmmmm...

UK eBayer selling it to fund a new watch.

I got it for £62.01 and it's been worn twice in 6 months.

£24.00

eBay.

Do it.

What have you got to lose? Except about £20.00

[ShadownINja]

That's cheap for a Parnis. Which supplier?

Linglingwatches in HK where most stuff starts at 99p

Nice Parnis, my favourite out of that bunch!
Nothing incoming to date.
Thinking about ordering Nomos Tangente Date watch, but not sure if i can justify the cost of one right now. Stowa Antea appeals too.
Decisions, decisions...

Ta! How much extra for customs when it enters the UK?

In don't know as I've never had topay it. I wouldn't guess very much though.

It will be marked either as "Gift" or "Watch parts for repair" and I've bought at least ten previously this way with no issues.

Should be zero, most sellers tend to put low value/gift declarations, i find.
