M13KYF Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 I've got a good contact in Holland Tim, just checked with him and he doesn't do them. I got two TW Steel watches from him and he was half price against retail here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nixy Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 nice. What about the risk of customs charges? Looks a bit more than the £18 your allowed through! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonathan73 Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Tim, I'm in LA now and could pick one up for you if you like. With the exchange rate it'll be half price. I don't mind putting it on my credit card and you reimburse me when I'm back if you like. My cell is 07875 490077 - please remember I'm 8 hrs behind though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H5 Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 TAG don't authorise anyone too sell over the net, so be careful. Getting one direct from the US / Switzerland is best. My parents bought 3 when they went to Switzerland and the amount they saved on them paid for their holiday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trev-the-Rev Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Very nice Tim. Does this mean that you will be selling your Speedmaster? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomoto Posted December 8, 2007 Author Share Posted December 8, 2007 Very nice Tim. Does this mean that you will be selling your Speedmaster? Nooooooooo I have a watch fetish that will go along with the others I darent add up how much money I have wasted on watches over the years, misguidedly thinking they are an investment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zedrush Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Bit cheeky I know but when I was getting a vertu phone, my mum called a jewellers at Heathrow airport in duty free, the woman there said we could buy through the store at duty free prices, she said they often do it and use a random boarding pass number for the purchase, but will send the phone to a delivery address which happened to be my address, which is how they get round it. They also sell tag watches and everything else, might be your best bet at getting one without getting done by the tax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
