My fiancee want's to buy me.....

I have recently proposed to my lovely girlfriend and bought her a huge rock attached to a band of very expensive metal.

Completly without prompting she offered to buy me something to celebrate as well!!!

Once I had gone through the first half dozen or so stupid things (Aston Martin, apartment in Bath etc) we struck on the idea of a watch.

I quickly exhausted the Swiss connection and have decided on a Japanese-only release divers watch.

I have found some retailers in Japan who would be willing to sell us one and ship it promptly and some of the specialist Seiko online forums recommended them, but who are they???

I tried to contact Seiko for direction and advice on who they recommended but they wouldn't commit.

Does anyone have any idea on how best to conduct a secure insured transaction in case of fraud?

The only thought I had had is Barcalycard's purchase protection but as neither of us have one it seems silly to get one just for this!!

Any bright ideas or advice??

Brian

    Best settle for a chippy dinner and a can of lager mate, it's less fuss. 1a_y_tongue1.gif
