There's a gaff along Burlington Arcade where you can pick one from your year of birth. Yes they're bowel-clenchingly expensive, but there are some real beauties to be seen.
I had a gander at some to decide which one I wanted to get the missus for her 30th and then set up all the alerts, bells and whistles on eBay and when one popped up I made the bloke an offer and two days later it arrived. My man at Mappin's gave it the once over, told me it was kosher and I released the cash.
One happy lady. She actually wept.
