Not sure about that, they go for twice as much often on ebay than you'd pay on aliexpress sale day with coupons, topcashback etc, but I know what you mean P.
Yes, same as you, all meant in humour. ...

You can buy a lot of San Martins for that!

That's incredible considering some of these watches can land on your doorstep for less than £40 including delivery and vat! Guess Chinese labour rates help with that though.

Total crapshoot with Seiko's P. My Alpinist is about 5 seconds a day slow but that's a higher grade movement than a nh35 and a £2700 (rrp) watch. I've had Steeldive (£60-70), Pagani (£40-60), and...

I haven't owned a San Martin but have owned several nh35 powered Chinese watches (from companies half or even a third of the price of San Martin) and the timekeeping on all of them has been within a...

You are mischievous P.

A bit like houses I suppose Dave, rises and falls but overall upwards.
The service required on the Rolex if you want to get your money back will be a number of times the cost of the San Martin but I...

No, I know you're not Dave, and I'm not suggesting you are. Low cost yes (at least in the rarefied world of TZ), almost free certainly not unless they continue to rise.

Good bit of man maths there Dave, but my ISA 'currently' pays 4.8% (of course, like the Rolex that can go down as well as up, and more likely than the Rolex probably will go down). So thats £480 the...

And that's not including servicing costs.

True, and if it were rolex would be broke.

And I agree with that Dave. I'll go further and say that San Martin probably employs more people per watch than Rolex on the production lines.

True Dave, but only a small contributing factor. It doesn't make £9900 difference on a mass produced watch.
