    Or buy something using ebay global shipping which handles that for you. Or buy from the UK - bellmatic all the way! Because you don't have a mechanical alarm, do you?

    yes the price it went for in the end it might have been an option as all in would have left £20 spare so that would have probably cover it ... just don't like not knowing what you are going to get hit with ... but yes would deffo buy some thing if it had the global post have done several times and been happy ...

    yes I have got several alarms two mech / one quartz

    well waving if it is the chosen one or not some days it is others not so sure have spent a little bit of it on a movement that am hoping I can get to work to do mod this one is going to be a real trier of a mod the dial I have modified to fit the case need a slim movement but the 64 did not seem to fit right with the dial on so have gone an old 12 o'clock winder hoping I can flip it round 60 degrees .. to fit the case I want the hand ah the hands that will need a very thin sanding bar to make bigger to fit so going to be fun to see how it ends
