Wouter Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 As the title says - I'm looking for recommended sources in the euro zone (unfortunately not Cousins in the UK). I'll be in Holland for a short while - I live in Brazil - and would like to take advantage of lower prices in the euro zone. Where I live, it's at least double the price, if available. I'll need Moebius oils and grease, Molykote and some small tools of good quality. Thanks in advance and cheers to you all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a hobbyist in Germany and came to this conclusion after lots of searching and investigating. I don’t have to pay any custom fees if the value of the parcel is below about 120 £ (may be similar or the same in Holland). If it‘s more than 120 £ you might place two or more orders.

Paul80 Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Just take the well known for not fitting most watches Bergeon Cannon Pinion tool, almost all the big watch tool suppliers are asking well north of £200 for this tool, from Cousins it's just over £60. They seem to be cheaper than just about every supplier and sometimes as in the above example very much cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul80 Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Not blessed with access to Boleys prices so wouldn't know that but what I said still applies to many suppliers of that item, although to be honest I had not searched recently once I found it did not work with many watch pinions I stopped looking, I just did a fresh search and some have now dropped its price and many seem to no longer stock it, I wonder if Bergeon have discontinued it and are just clearing stock?
