What watch are you wearing?

Does anyone know how much import duties are if you buy a watch from Oversea's.

 

Saw a very nice Victorinox watch for R7000 in Sandton but on Amazon the exact same watch is $300.

 

I just went through the exercise, you only pay VAT on watches.

Aha.... a ringtone playing watch... yippee....

Eish...

 

Warranty: Luxury Time 2 year Guaruntee

 

One would expect that to be lifetime for that pricwle...

What made you choose a Steinhart?

A couple of things really. Firstly the ETA movement is well known and can be serviced by any good watch maker. I also spent quite a bit of time over at the watchuseek forum going over the workmanship they put into their watches. And now actually wearing it I am not disappointed at all. I am also getting their ocean 1 as soon as stock is available. There are actually a few watches around with a similar price point if you are prepared to shop around, but I felt that this was the best value for money, I also liked how easy it was to order since you can buy directly from them.

You are right about the best value for money.

 

I have a Ocean 44 and wanted to sell it but kept it.
