Throw that metal thing in the bin Cheers Simey Lovely combo you have there. I delight in seeing the leather straps on Speedy’s. I may consider it, although I’m partial to water resistant straps on my watches. 2 hours ago, NCRich said: Lovely @hanski that is a great watch. I'm not even going to google elady.

Don't think you would ever regret buying one but even if you do they are pretty easy to flip and if you get it for a good price might you even make a few quid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't think you would ever regret buying one but even if you do they are pretty easy to flip and if you get it for a good price might you even make a few quid Flipping is not the plan - I will get one 100% at some stage and when I do, it will be a keeper. I hinted to my missus that I wanted one so I'm going to wait till Xmas in case she gets me one, if not, I'm going to spank eLady. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did tell her I'd love one a while ago. The thing with my missus is there is a chance she'll get me something amazing like that - but there are similar sort of odds that she'll literally get me nothing. Such is my wife.

If your comfortable replacing, it’s not that much money ($100ish). 5 hours ago, TheGingerFerret said: I did tell her I'd love one a while ago.

black263 228 Posted December 18, 2019 Thought I'd have a look at elady to see how much my Breitling Heritage 46 had lost in value since I bought it. They have one on offer for £300 more than the current UK price new from an AD, and £500 more than I paid. So you can't just assume that buying from there is always great value.

They also list all their Speedys (all watches?) on Chrono24 at the same price - so agreed, not that cheap. Chrono24 prices in fact! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Khronos 1,339 Posted December 19, 2019 Speedy is on my list too, mostly due to the fact, that they haven't bothered to make a decent rep yet. But I have a hunch, that VSF will make a big announcement about a game changing rep one day after I buy a gen... They're 4700€ for the hesalite version over here in Slovenia. How much are they where you guys live? I think I could get the usual 18-20% off though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
