Ok guys, whilst on holiday in the Carribean (Belize) I bought a Black dialled Colt automatic II on a Pro II steel bracelet and I also bought a Black leather Croco strap with Tang / buckle,
I paid $2,439 (£1,219.50) I thought that this was quite a good deal, what do you guys think ?
Regards,
The Soulman.

The 2008 colt automatic black dial with professional bracelet in steel (item 320 in the chronolog can be had for $1833. The croc with tang buckle is 379 after discounts (less margin on those).

Wish I could say it's a good deal. :(

Thanks for the reply, I only had limited time as we were on a cruise, in any case the cost (In my instance) is reletive, the watch alone, in the UK, would have cost me around $3,300 (£1,650).
Also I forgot to mention that the watch was bought from an AD, would this make any difference to your thoughts ?,

Regards,
The Soulman.

I understand the UK price gouging difference. The prices I was quoting are from our group buy rates which are from and AD as well.

Either way, just enjoy your watch, it's a beautiful piece. Looking forward to some pictures ;)

Even compared with my best UK AD deals/discounts, you got a good price, Soulman. As you're UK based too, I think you did well.

Enjoy them.

Nick
