You wouldn't avoid VAT buying from Germany as it's in the EU, they'd just charge german VAT. When i looked a while ago the price in Euros on the Nomos website worked out about £400 cheaper than the £sterling price, but that might have been a particular low point for the euro so that could change.
I agree it does sound like a good saving, there is just something weird about how Iconic say an unworn watch is "recently purchased new and purchased by us without having been worn" but then if it comes with all the right docs, perhaps I'm just being overly cautious. I was only looking at this on bonus day anyway and that isn't for a few months, so if you go for it let me know how you get on
I was looking to buy something from Nomos but was put off by the £ price being much higher than the Euro equivelent, but AFAIK this is due to differential pricing by Nomos rather than being due to tax, duty, VAT etc.
