In some ways though, the possibility of selling them is a reassurance - I'd never sell any of my Heuers unless I absolutely had to, but I've bought well - buying only when I've seen a good watch for a good price, and I could probably get

A bit of both. I've bought gens and reps, but not of the same model. The last rep I've bought (a very good black / silver Carrera from Josh which keeps excellent time) was bought with the intention of seeing whether it would be too big for me to wear day to day - a 5 minute try-on in a dealer isn't really enough time to decide. The rep isn't, and it also keeps excellent time, so I'll probably hand on to it until it breaks, and then get a gen. I've also bought a Sub rep, again just to see if I think it suits me - and I've decided it doesn't, so that's that. I still wear the rep from time to time if I think I may end up doing something that would damage a "proper" watch as it too keeps good time. Just for the record, the gens are: Heuer Carrera 2 register manual wind (60s) Heuer Carrera 2 register automatic with date (70s) Heuer Autavia 2 register automatic with date (80s) For some reason I really like the pre-TAG Heuers, although other than the Carrera tachy chrono, nothing in the current line-up appeals to me at all - not even the re-editions due to the TAG element on the logo.

Apologies - I know it's been covered to some degree before having lurked for a while, but hadn't seen if there was a definitive opinion on the subject. I'll have a look at single use numbers - not something I've come across before.

Hi all, long-time lurker but I think this may be the first time I've posted. Quick query - I've bought from two reputable dealers on here before and been very happy with the service and product on both occasions. However, in the past both those dealers accepted Paypal but they're now credit card only. Am I being overly paranoid in being concerned about this? Just to stress, I am happy to shop with the people I've dealt with before, but am worried about my card details ending up misused due to circumstances beyond their control. All opinions more welcome.
