Good point, it is was only a throw away comment. Fees look like VAT on £550 plus 28.8%fee on £550 plus £550 so £818.40 all in. Still cheap but as you say not quite free watch head territory.
Still cheap, I feel... I don't know about the X-33 market, but it's a hell of a lot of watch for that amount of money.
Yes I think so. On eBay a loose mk1 like that on the bracelet would likely fetch £1150-1300, a mk2 maybe £150-200 more. B&p would add about £200-250 so yes pretty cheap. They can be expensive to put right though, OSC only for parts and servicing now, even STS won't touch them. I dabbled but at 44mm it looked too big for me so it didn't stick.
gutted i registered too late to bid and was working at the time so couldn't ring and bid over the phone ah well... next time....
I have one and love it. If you can get one with the official box made out of astronaut suit material.
Only thing to watch out for is that in the inside of box, the red flocking can start to disintegrate. Just be mindful of that.
