Thank you friends..New sub C LV!

Hi guys,

Thanks to your kind help and advice i bought my sub ceramic LV today at a cost of £4761 all because of the education i recieved on here. I put a deposit on the watch a couple of months ago and then bought 1 share in the Signet group which owns ernest jones and as a shareholder gives you a 10 per cent discount. Although the price has gone up since i put deposit down the manager allowed me the watch at the original price of £5290 and then took the 10 per cent discount off. Needless to say i am very pleased with the watch. I keep comparing it to my explorer and checking out all the upgrades, i.e the bigger case, solid centre links and the new clasp..Thanks everyone and not sure if i can, but if any one in london ever needs to use the card then PM me, i would love to help.

ive uploaded some pics taken on the phone but im not very good with computers so not sure how to post good quality photos (ive got a decent camera, so if any one could talk me through it i would be very grateful).

And to think I was over the moon at paying the old price until someone suggested a further 10 per cent with the signet card! Sooo chuffed to bits..heard rumours of a rise before Christmas so double pleased....

Buy a share in Aurum group (Goldsmith, WoS, and Mappin & Webb) then you're covered!!!

To my surprise someone on the forum told us about a ss daytona in goldsmiths today, I called and it was still available...if they were in the signet group and I could get the extra 10 per cent off as well (greedy I know!), I would have purchased two rolex today! By the way what is the discount in the Aurum group?
