Online purchases
Hi all
New to forum…..discovered after searching for a ‘treat’ watch and watching some fantastic videos from Bens Watch Club and The Mad Watch Collector on YouTube…..great channels.
First post…..anyone have experience of using Creation Watches shipping to the UK? I am so unlucky with purchases, nearly everything I buy has to go back at least once, so have always steered clear of non-UK based websites. However these guys have a pretty good score on Trustpilot. Would welcome anyones first hand experience.

I bought a Seiko 5 a few years back and it was delivered fine etc (make sure you account for the import duty). After a few months the crown stem came out of the watch but I managed to get it done under warranty with Seiko UK.

Funny, it was a Seiko 5 I was looking at from them. Really good point about import duty - never gave that a thought & actually doesn’t. make buying from them that much cheaper, especially considering my worry about buying from a non-UK seller. Really appreciate you mentioning that because I’d have kicked myself.

No worries mate, wait for a sale or a 10% off code in the UK and they’d be about the same price and less hassle
Yeah will do a little UK surfing.
I‘d got that one in mind because my budget was a little too tight for what I really wanted - a AVI-8 Lock Chrono which I thought I’d wait for it to appear in a sale. The Seiko 5, SNK809, got rave reviews, I liked the ‘pilot’ look and I thought would add to my collection.
I’ve not got any experience of Avi-8 but they look nice in photos. Watchnation have the SNK809 at 129 with an extra 10% off at the minute. Seiko 5s are great watches, I bought a Sea Urchin (SNZF17J1) and it still runs like a champ for my son who has it now. Good hunting mate 😁
