Hi,

I want to get a tag carrera and dont mind travelling to get one. where would be best - usa? if so where - new york / department store? any suggestions would be good - am thinking if i can get it half the price in usa I might as well have a free trip out there for the same money as buying it in england?

thanks

TBH

you wouldn't save that much buying in the US. i looked for ages and you would have to buy without a warranty.

cheapest place i bought mine from was aatime.co.uk

The customer service was outstanding

I bought my TAG Carrera (Model WV211B) in Antigua for about £550 it was list £1100 here. Got it from a place called abbots, they had loads of models and all prices were US$ equivalent of £ prices.

I emailed them before travelling, I got there details throught the brietling website of official dealers.

You can fly there for £250 return with first choice and have a holiday at the same time.

Is it the tachy or the classic (CV2113.FC6181) you're after?

I paid AED 11,000 for mine last year - that's about GBP 1,530

Here's my version
