Fine print of individual policies aside, just a general view.
Valid point but I’d imagine more claims are made on house policies then individual and I know when I last arrange insurance I was asked if I had claimed on any past house or contents insurance, so technically if you had claimed on a individual watch policy you would be oblige to disclose!

In much the same way you can get a Sony TV from best buy or a cheaper one from walmart. They are almost the same but the specs and number of HDMI ports or the processor is different. You are getting a good deal but its not quite the same TV even if it looks identical.
Don’t dispute that but I was referring to the ‘insurance from a grocery store’ comment not the cost/exclusions POV
