Can't help with one in the UK at MSRP but I do know of one in the US BNIB for 40% off if you are interested.

It might be worth your while to fly over and pick it up.

Might be a tall order finding one brand new, those first came out back in mid to late '08, I think (I can remember, as we'd just our first one in when I was starting at the shop). They didn't hang around for long, either. Best of luck on finding one, it's the nicest LE model they've done for a long time

They do come up occasionally on the various FS boards and Ebay.

I nearly bought one for £3,300. He quietly came down from £3,700 with no interest.

I was waiting for a final reduction to £3,200. I snoozed, I loozed.

It's a fabulous watch, just not at MRSP.

PM sent.

I am in the states quite regularly and would be interested in one of these watches at that price.
