Not too sure but i think the watch has to have a sterling silver bracelet.

The Men's TAG Heuer Formula One Chronograph Watch has a stainless steel 40mm case and bracelet. You can choose from a red, black or white dial etc etc...
If so Is mine the winning bid??

As you can see from my post i have covered all the tag watches fromm AATIME and the one requested with the silver bracelet and all the other specifications looks to be £460 delivered
i could have posted the cheapest TAG watch in the Chronograph range but this is not what is required for this task.

You have actually stated that you have found the watch for #450. where as I have found the watch allbeit on the same website for cheaper than your find. If there is no going on peoples "found" websites then this should be stated in the rules.

I think the Admin should clarify what watch is required, a cheap black strapped watch for £360 or a silver strapped like stated in his starting post.I have found the cheaper version at a cheaper price but loathe to post it just now incase my researching time is exploited,suppose a lesson for the future, after all it is supposed to be a bit of fun.

Gavin .. you can't cover all the watches from one website. You have to post a direct link from the watch you have found with the price including postage.

If you look at last weeks winner you will see they 'copied' another post but worked it in a better way (if you check o ut last weeks challenge you will understand what I mean)

So, even though you found some watches on a particular site, I think shinnanigans is winning as he/she posted the link first.

The C4 Ed doesnt fancy searching the sites you post, he just wants to go directly to the watch and see the price.

HTH & Good Luck!

The Men's TAG Heuer Formula One Chronograph Watch has a stainless steel 40mm case and bracelet.The Men's TAG Heuer Formula One Chronograph Watch has a stainless steel 40mm case and bracelet.

The two above statements are from the Money editors task so why are people posting rubber bracelet watches?.Am i on the wrong path,i have read what is asked and i am only questioning what is being posted. I suppose i am only helping others look for the CORRECT watch but i could be missing something from the EDs task.

it seems on aatime that the black, red and white are all different prices.

white - £450.00
black - £425.00
red - £435.00

so does this change anything? Confused is it taken as the highest price or as the low4est price but you would have to take the black face?? can someone clarify?

http://www.aatime.com/productdetail.asp?productid=859 - white
http://www.aatime.com/productdetail.asp?productid=1033 - black
http://www.aatime.com/productdetail.asp?productid=6465 - red

As it states in the brief that you are able to have any coloured face it seems to me that the black face is acceptable. @ aatime the watches in question fit every description so the price of the black faced watch is the cheapest and meets the requirements of the challenge.
