List cost new in USA is 5'490.00 USD*

Some vendors will discount this by a bit.

Was the Diver Pro and the leather strap with a tang buckle or deployant?
Deployants are not cheap so it would add a few $$$ to the deal.
Norway list prices for new watches are most likely higher than US.
Difficult to compare like this.
One way to answer this is to check completed transactions on eBay for the watch on bracelet, factor in the extra costs for the rubber and leather straps as well as shipping and import taxes to see if you would have done better if you bought one from US for example and got it shipped to you in Norway.
If the straps are deployant type then I'd be tempted to say that you were not stung that bad.
Not the most fantastic deal perhaps but not mega bad either.

I just paid $3,450 US for a used 2012 super avenger all stainless, with all papers and box and even a hat. Seems like you over paid a bit

I do not now how to post pictures here to show the watch and straps, but the lether strap has tang buckle and the diver pro har deployant.
I can see now that the prices are high her in Norway, before Norway was one of the cheapest country to bay watches. but not eny longer.

All depends how you look at it?

The list price for SA and Avenger with SS bracelet in Scandinavia is around 4800-5200€ depending on the country. Used from a store with a one year warranty they go for about 2900-3400€.

The rubber strap (new) with buckle would be around 100€ and the leather would be around 120€. With the folding clasp the rubber and leather would be maybe around 400€ a piece.

If the straps have the deployants (folding clasps), then you did ok. Otherwise you maybe over paid a couple hundred.

But either way, if you decide to sell it at some point, yu won´t take a too bad beating with the depreciation. It´s almost new, in great condition so I wouldn´t worry about it too much. Just enjoy it! :)
