Wanted: Tintin watches

Hi everyone, I'm new to these forums and was hoping someone might be able to help.

I'm looking to replace two Tintin watches which have unfortunately broken over the last few years.

One was a Blue Lotus watch (I forget what was on the face, but the whole watch-face was a blue hue)

The other was a Tintin in America watch, depicting Tintin on a ship looking at the New York skyline.

If anyone has either of these, or knows where to get them, please do let me know as I'm very keen to replace them.

Failing that, I'm also in the market for some other Tintin watches like the one with the Black Island cover.

Thanks in advance!

Moderator Note: Welcome to the boards! There have been a great number of Tintin watches over the years, so you will need to give more information if your old watches are to be properly identified (year and manufacturer would be a great help).

Also please note that there have been numerous unofficial watches, which have been made cheaply in the Far East without permission from Moulinsart: we don't allow information about where to get such items to be passed around on these forums. So please do not discuss obtaining pirate merchandise if posting a reply to the enquiry! Many thanks for your cooperation!

Thank you Mr/Ms Moderator. I don't think I would want a knock-off, but thanks for the warning.

I have found pictures of the ones I'm looking for:
Blue Lotus watch
Tintin in America ship watch

Moderator Note: No problem - given the prices on those watches, it pays to shop around, and be careful what you are paying for! On a housekeeping note, it's best to point your links to the page hosting the image, rather than directly to the image itself, so that the person who's gone to the bother of putting the image up in the first place gets the traffic to their site (we've fixed them for you!).
Good hunting!
