I personally prefer this one as its radio controlled and sapphire crystal but not titanium : http://www.creationwatches.com/products/citizen-radio-controlled-204/citizen-eco-drive-chronograph-radio-controlled-atomic-at8011-55a-5118.html

None of the sapphire glass ones linked to are perpetual calendars.

Lack of sapphire may be a negative, but to me at least, lack of perpetual calendar is a big negative. My eco-drive is a perpetual one (not sure about the glass TBH? But I've had it 6 years and theres not a scratch on it) and I'd hate to go back to the fiddling that goes with non-perpetual calendars on an analog watch .....

How about import tax?

Awesome, may have to bite then lol! From what I've read, I won't be disappointed :smiley:

Anyone been stung by additional import tax on these?

I own this watch, and would definitely recommend it. I bought it during a previous active HUKD post.

The whole design, build quality, and weight are great. The solar panels are cleverly hidden and integrated in to the watch, and the perpetual Calendar is a great feature.

Programming is a little complicated, and so is flipping by between GMT / BST, compared to traditional analogue watches, but you get used to it.

Watch keeps perfect time, and spends most of its time under my sleeve, and never asks to be charged, the few seconds a day glancing at the time exposes the watch to enough light to keep it charged for up to 2 years.

It used to retail £350 - £400 in local shops, so this is a good price!

Great post. Another present sorted!

What rubbish... if a warranty is part of the contract of sale it should be honoured, whatever price paid.

In effect You honour warranty yourself, that's how it works in countries with no warranty. You save 20% money per item for no warranty, then with all purchases the amount of money saved is enough to offset the less than 3% rate of failures, especially with reliable brands which is less than 1%. Likewise with extended warranty, again you honour extended warranty yourself by not paying for these premiums. Just add up the £100, £50, £40,..extra money for extended warranty or insurance for all the major items in the house, one would save a large amount of money to buy new for a failed appliance.

Good watch but no sapphire glass

Warranty not honoured

Niice watch, heated!

Fugly!

There is this one for people who want sapphire... But only 100m water resistant. Nice looking watch too sapphire watch

If only it was not multi dial!

Hot vote from me.

This looks lovely and a steal at £84!

From the style of their website they are in China.

Made mistake of buying a watch from Creation once.... never again

If you really need sapphire, the same dealer has the CA4010-58A, also an Eco-Drive titanium chrono, for £162 (not sure the discount code works on that watch though). Doesn't look nearly as good as the OP's watch though, imho.

LOL I agree

Photos look a a bit cheap looking vs other Eco drives

But it is a very good deal and I voted hot

Sapphire glass this the deal breaker

I have the leather strap version of this watch. It's worked perfectly for 5-6 years and never had a problem with it.
Very good price, although I do have to agree that it would benefit from having sapphire glass - you can tell the difference (I have another sapphire glass eco-drive). That's not knocking this hot deal though, it's a lot of watch for the money.

very similar to my titanium one. had it about 8 years, and worn every day. never missed a beat and still in excellent condition. I paid a lot more than this also.

Heat added nice looking watch
