the difference in discounts given.....is it related to whether that particular branch is meeting sales budget?

 

i went to taka's HG and they insisted no disc.

when i went to raffles hotel HG, the price kept dropping.

 

 

*oh yah...ive finally got my DSSD from chuan watches...thanks for the advises given here. :D

thats common knowledge , dude.

 

discounts are based on salesperson not the shop.

 

Omegas generally can squeeze discount to 25+5%

it does depend on which model though.

Nowadays, everyone wants a piece of affluence.

 

Really meh? The 20+% for omegas should be some time ago? I found that nowadays standard for omega is 8% + a couple of % more if you are good at squeezing it out

With the rate of the Euro and USD going down daily - does anyone know whether it's worthwhile to buy watches from either Europe or US?

seems like the best bargains / discounts are still in Asia.

 

However, it's not totally uncommon to find a good buy in Europe.

Especially with tax rebates.

 

Key is to check your prices beforehand so that you can decide on the spot to buy or not.

I got at 6.2k (retailing at 9k odd if i recall correctly) at HG in 2006. If you're interested, google ' singapore luxury bazaar'. There's a preown unit gg at 4.8K. Papers dated 07. Don't think can get new one already.

Maybe that's true. I don't know. I think for reputable dealer, the first discount offered shld be standard. What goes on after that, is a different matter.

Comments please.

I always love Breitling over Seiko or even sometimes ROLEX

Breitling design is nice, seems like complicated watch but it blend well the design and reflect how the person using it is a smart guy...

 

 

just my 2 cents

Thanks, but I hardly use it, so far I remember using it only twice since my wife got it many moons back.

I like the watch, but it's not my "type" I'm into dive watches, using a Luminox Special addition 3100 series.

I'm very happy with this watch. :D As it holds a lot of memories for me.
