    Watches by UHR offer an excellent VFM, a Valjoux 7750 chrono can be had for 399 Euro !

    That has to be one of the most ungoogleable names out there.

    Try it: uhren von uhr - Google Search

    Anyhow, I find the dive watch UHR-432 attractive.

    I have to say, I'm impressed. It looks like a great bargain for that price, especially since the site seems to mention a five year warranty

    Wow, very nice looking watches indeed. I didn't see an English option on their website, unfortunately, so I can't read the FAQs or other pertinent details. Do any of our fellow forum readers own one of these?

    Kind Regards,

    Seeing as etachoc is used (the 2836-2), it's standard or Elaboré. At this price point, I wouldn't be surprised that it would be Standard grade, but even then it would stille be a very good price

    thats my guess too.

    anyway the shipping outside Europe is at EUR$45 that's rather high. EUR$500 insurance for a EUR$399 watch.
    I hope they offer other cheaper alternative.
    Christopher ward watches are at a budget too and shipping is reasonable at GBP$12 of course it takes 7-10 biz days to arrive in Asia/N.A.

    (1) You can't insure the exact value of an item. You have to insure in "brackets". Up to 500 is one of those brackets. 45 Euro is ok as far as I remember, that's what I payed with DHL too if I remember correctly but do not live in Germany any more.
    (2) If CW ships for less go for a CW then However 399 + 45 for a 7750 chrono is still a bargain.

    Mr. Stuffler, does the word "uhr" mean "watch"?
