Took the family up to London on Saturday for a nose around, firstly we checked out the watch shops in the new Westfields London shopping centre, nice variety and a very nice shopping centre (mall for you overseas guys!). Definitly recommend Byrons if you enjoy a good hamburger, cooked like they should be, pink in the middle!

We then headed off to Selfridges and in to the 'Wonder Room', now if you are in to watches this place will have you busy for hours! Just about every brand is available there including a very good selection of Breitlings.

After that we moved on to Harrods and their 'Watch Room', again fantastic selection and some very very nice expensive pieces, a very nice JLC complications for just over £250,000!!

Tried on a couple of Breitlings and an IWC Portuguese Auto (very nice, must get one). I now have a huge appreciation for some of those Zenith models too.

Every dealer had a Super Avenger Black Steel in stock and Harrods had a coral dial Emergency, not seen one of those in store for a while.

Didn't buy anything but later that day/yesterday secured a very good deal on a silver dial Breitling Navitimer Olympus which should be with me tomorrow!

Sounds like a perfect Saturday to me, and congratulations on the Olympus deal too!

Identical, except this one is on a brown croc and was a very good price indeed!
