·I want another Omega to compliment my Speedmaster Broad Arrow - 3594.50.00 and have set my heart on the Seamaster 300 2254.50 (or 22545000 - whatever the right reference is?) A stunning watch IMHO.
I've found a watch (full set) in Europe, but it is originally from Japan. Having looked at prices over there they tend to be at least €1000-1500+ cheaper and in the US watch prices are cheaper than in Europe, but then we have to pay tax/import duty to get them sent to Europe (and even in the UK - thanks to BREXIT ).
So my questions are; Is this worth pursuing (should I be aware of anything?) Are there any differences in Japanese watches or is it just worth getting a cheaper watch without box and papers and just enjoy it. It's not an investment, although that's in the back of my mind?
Thanks in advance.
