I'm doing a big watch clear out as below:
Parnis GMT, comes with extra links- £50
Parnis Yachtmaster -£50 - comes with extra links and spare grey bezel insert
G Shock - £40 - comes boxed with manual etc. Sometimes it takes a couple of presses to get the light to come on, I'm assuming it may need a new battery. Comes with wire cage thing
SEIKO SKX031 on Jubilee - good condition has some minor marks, slight scuff to glass at 10 o'clock. comes with spare links - £160
Tudor Black Bay 58 - let's call it a homage.. it's a Super clone grade which is as close to the real thing as you'll get.. comes with box and bits.. extra links. About 6 weeks old and only selling as I got the real thing.. can post extra pics and also beside the genuine one for comparison.. £250
Postage on top at £7.50 for RMSD.. also if you can cover PayPal fees..

Thanks for all the replies.. I think that's made my mind up not to get it.. If it was £300 ish it might be a different story.
To be fair I bought a Tudor BB58 just before Christmas on the black and gold nato and was a bit underwhelmed by it TBH.. had it a couple of months and sold it on.
Since then I took the urge and bought this replica.. it's classed as a super clone grade.. and to be honest after having the genuine one and this, there isn't any discernible difference.. Pity I didn't have both at the same time to actually compare.. I honestly think the lume on this thing is better than the genuine one.. literally very clear all night long.. meant to have some sort of swiss auto movement too, but haven't opened it to check..
I'll prob be hammered on here for the fake.. so technically I do have a BB58 ish....

What are peoples thoughts on microbrands? I quite fancy a watch from this local company, but it's quite expensive £747 which is getting on a bit for a Tudor homage. Is that likely just to lose all it's money and be worthless in a few years?? I'm meeting the fella who runs it later in the week to see them in the flesh and have a chat..

I spent Saturday fitting Ikea Platsa wardrobes in our bedroom.. due to us having sloping eaves to one side we decided to buy 1200mm high bases and 600mm tops which would need cut into the slope of the roof.. Little did I know that both the ceiling and floor would be seriously off the level.. I had to pack out the floor at one end by 30mm.. also had to space the wardrobes off the wall to allow them to run into the roof.. turned out well in the end.. some pics of the process..
The base packing strips got larger at the edge of each wardrobe.. which I built up with various cuts of wood I had.. 3mm hardboard, 9mm ply, 12mm OSB, 18mm MDF, then layered it up to suit.. Made a MDF template for the sloped bit then cut them all using the table saw.. they do have unfished edges against the ceiling, but you'll never see that..
