He's going to make a couple ducats on the deal but I wonder if the non-transferable warranty will be a sticking point for some... Pax |

The seller re-figured the conversion rate for GBP and posted the following: "Just realised that my conversion rate was all wrong. It is not my intention to profit from this watch.. It cost me about US$500 to get it here from Orsa in Canada So I guess £265 including Special Delivery is about right" |

No Oscar. I requested a sapphire crystal which delays delivery of the watch by a few weeks. Thanks for asking. |

BTW..the gang over at TZ-UK are a great bunch and I reccomend Eddies Platts forum! and I can't wait for the Precista Italiano LE to be released...100 and sold out Quick...with high hopes of this turning out to be another Dreadnought!! Based on a Panny base/Case sandwich dial with a chronomter spec Unitas handcranker that has a very detailed and decorated movement..I'm #32 |

He just simply might not like the watch or found it not up to his standards. Plus the timing is before all other Angler's get their watches. I am always suspicious of a new issue that flips fast. |
