I think there's a small healthy trade in LED watches, mostly amongst 30+ adults who had one and lost it, or (like me) couldn't afford one in the 70's.
I've got a modern retro LED, and an inverse LCD with green backlight that looks like and LED. I bought the latter because the former just eats batteries.
Better deals than £45 can easily be had though, I think mine cost me about £30, and I bought it from a rather kitsch shop, so probably paid a little over the odds at that.
