Matt Armstrong's Dog Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 Aye aye, I have a Lorus watch with brown strap for sale, still in its original box and never been worn. Bought for an investment at £37.50 as it was on sale, down from £50. Bought it from a local jeweller in April but it's remained in its box ever since. (£20 and it's yours). PM me if interested.

Needs must though. Link to comment

Yes I have asked the question and they are trying to find out. The worst thing is it’s nae a Rolex or something, just has sentimental value as my daughter got it. Knowing my luck they’ll probably charge me a fucking fortune if it ever does turn up. Link to comment

It is indeed min. Does the business. The current AFC watch is circa. £70 but is a different design. (The one I got was part of a birthday present in 2017.)👍 Link to comment

Poodler Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 This is one of those few excellent hat threads on the hat where you’re not sure if it’s genuine or a wind up and most of the big hitters are waiting to see what everyone else writes/ thinks before piling in imo 1 Link to comment
