My connundrum

[Strange]

I have a large, erect skyscraper for a Bremont MBII but I can't stomach the price. What to do?

Even used in good condition we're talking ~3 large. This is not a three gee watch and damn sure isn't six gee watch. It's English for chrissakes.

But I want one. What to do?

Buy a Seiko SARG007 and an orange texta?

Does the Queen still need a stunt double?

I got mine new from AD in Aruba, so didn't pay full US list price.

Edit, $ to GBP rate favourable at the moment so buy in the UK and claim 20% vat back as you leave the country.

I don't know man...I'm in the same boat with Panerai. I like them, but the prices are too rich for my blood.

Save for a little while, maybe trade or sell off a piece. Or hang around the AD and when some unsuspecting fool buys one, knock him over the head. This way you get the boxes, bag etc. ( only a joke, do not try this at home!)

[Mediocre]

Sell a watch that you rarely wear or care about now.....put the received funds along with whatever else is needed to purchase the Bremont....technically you did not pull $3K out of your bank account for the Bremont

Dear boy,
It is six gee, as you say, precisely because it is English.

Wait until it is off warranty and leaking like a Land Rover then scoop one up for pennies on the dollar

Try looking for one in some southeast asian watch forums, a preowned MBII under warranty wouldn't fetch 3 large around here.
