Dan ps i'm a bit blown away by all the traders on here, can you recommend anyone UK based or would you chance ordering from oversees thanks I am in London and visit bham often.. haha. small world I didnt wanna bother risking the overseas orders due to customs etc. I have just purchased my 3rd watch from PT (precioustime-uk.com / ptswiss.com) and I cannot reccomend him enough. His products are of very high quality, nice friendly chap to deal with and no customs issues either. He is highly recommended. There is Narikka if you fancy fantasy or cheaper reps + pens and stuff. Nice fellow but i havent yet bought anything off him yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big0spin Posted July 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 Pt looks like a great site (no prices though, i guess i'll mail them and ask) i have been assured by Josh at perfect clones that he's never had a problem with customs when shipping to uk (and he also seems to be held in pretty high regard on here) still confused!! will have to wait and see what the prices are like from precious time its going to probably be 3 or 4 watches (definately a Graham, a Chanel J12 for my girlfriend and at least 1 PAM ) happy times!

abat Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 Welcome from a bit further North in the UK. In terms of dealers Narikka and Precious Tim are both UK based and both excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chiefwiggum Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 (edited) Welcome Dan - I am UK based too, (Hampshire, although from Fulham) and I cannot recommend PT highly enough. He will answer any stream of questions and reply within 24 hrs. He also does a QC check before despatch. I haven't yet tried any other dealers, but if they are on this forum, you can guarantee that they will be reliable. Keep researching and reading so that you know exactly what you want in terms of mods etc, so at least that way there is no disappointment or misunderstanding when your baby arrives. I used to Ebay what seems like 24/7 - I can't stop logging on here now - It is the best and most informative by far.

big0spin Posted July 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 wow, thanks for all the replies guys looks like i'm in for the long haul i think i may need to do some in depth research into modding though never thought you could do so much to a watch lets just hope the bank balance holds up to the battering its about to get Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yogi2 Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 Hi I'm just up the road from brum I wouldn't shy away from the none UK dealers customs has never been a problem for me @15 watches from China. as for modding buy a cheap one and mess around with that first. Most need something doing to them even if its only smoothing of the edges. Don't start taking the backs of and messing round like I have take ages to fond the bit that fell on the floor "where did it go" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blade007 Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 guys, seeing as there are a few members here from london/UK. Have you met any of the forum dealers in person? Are there any off-forum dealers that are heppy to deal in person? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiefwiggum Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 Tom Highway was on TRC. He is "EU" based and he has answered a few of my queries very promptly lately. He seemed to have a good reputation on TRC. EU and UK dealers offer the least prospect of encountering any customs issues, although I haven't yet found this to be a problem - Touch wood because my 113 is on its way as I type.

chiefwiggum Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 Don't forget to check out Chris at Eurotimez as well - He is a top fella and offers a genuine QC before shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rustyrussel Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Hi Guys I'm down West in Cornwall and always, always buy from China direct - I've imported around 20 and several boxes with no problems - maybe I'm just lucky but it tends to get you the best price. Nice thread - thought I was the only Gawd Blimey Limey here for a while! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Welcome! PT's great, as is Chris from Eurotimez, but here in the UK we're lucky to have no problems importing our reps (although it's a good idea to keep it down to one or two watches per order - no point in inviting trouble). Personally, I've ordered from Josh, Ruby and several other reputable watch dealers based in China / Malaysia / Thailand without any problems whatsoever, so you can feel fairly safe ordering from whoever takes your fancy.

Trudie99 Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 Hey there, I'm new and from the UK. I live in Hampshire although spend a fair bit of my time working up in Scotland. I've ordered stuff through a couple of the guys here before indirectly through my ex boyfriend - a great Chanel watch from Trusty Time and a Jimmy Choo bag from Kenberg. Ive also got a nice collection of non-rep bags, although I have to admit, it's hard to tell the difference with a good quality rep! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
