    No idea, whatever watch their getting rid off!

    I'd reckon you can get an Oskar Emil watch off Ebay for around the same price if you really wanted one, and then you get to choose.

    My wife has an Oskar Emil watch and it looks really good, has worked perfectly for the last few years and by all accounts doesn't look like it cost £20ish ... I think the "RRP" was around £300! Just shows you how much of a mark up their is on jewellry!

    Oh and if anyone was wondering, I know all of this about the watches cos I bought some with a mate, split the cost (minimum order from Oskar Emil direct is about £100) and sold some on to mates. I think we paid between £10 and £20 per watch. It's just a co-incidence that this was offered as a prize on the "Golden Ticket"!

    It's very likely that if you go for the watch, Purely Creative (who make the Golden Ticket) will have made a profit from you. Can't imagine the watches would have cost them more than £10 each, so that's £11 for them to cover shipping and handling.

    They are nice watches though but you are effectively buying something, not winning something!!!

    I also got a watch, all you get is a voucher and then still have to pay another £13 for it, my other half keeps going on about it saying thats still cheap for a £225 watch but like someone said they are only £25 really.
    Also its funny that when i was on the phone it didnt go in to detail about any other prize but the watch!
