what sort of discount would you be looking at in the uk for a brand new 15400st royal oak from an ad?

Royalex · 26 March 2016, 09:08 PM

30%off I guess.

It depends where you are I think - in the UK you'll be doing well to get 15%, 10 is more likely.

i guess those who report 25-30% are foreigners who consider VAT rebate to be a discount

would love to know where in the UK you got 31% off

Samui · 28 March 2016, 08:52 AM

And what about the boutique pieces? Like the 15400 blue dial? What kind of discount can I expect?

When I got my ce diver which is a piece that european AP boutiques rarely gave discount on I got 10%, but I was dealing with the director of the AP showroom, a member here contacted them a month later about a 15400, not sure what dial and they said no way for a discount, really depends who you talk to IMO

I was told that for a black dial, strictly no discount on a blue though.

None — that's why I despise the whole own-brand boutique culture the industry has been pursuing.

I agree the whole boutique piece culture is not something I like...

Who would be the most "flexible" AD in the UK or UAE? Anyone have a reccomendation?

PJ S · 28 March 2016, 11:51 PM

Iconic has a very good rep, as well as Hackett watches — should you decide to forego only buying from an AD, otherwise look on AP's site for the list of ADs and start ringing them.

Iconic I can vouch for. Dom Hackett has a good rep but twice now I have called him and he has gone off to find a watch and I have never heard back.

Rameez-Q · 29 March 2016, 08:46 AM

Every AD is different, mines would give a few hundred quid off and even then would need to be squeezed for that. I think 10% is the max you'll generally get off as they don't sit in the window long.

Tay821 · 29 March 2016, 10:52 AM

What should the discount in the USA be? 25ish?

20-25 is a great deal in the US.

VICI · 30 March 2016, 10:05 AM

$12,000 bnib

That's a stretch but there was definitely a huge dip in prices during the financial crisis a few months ago. In Jan I got a killer deal on a RO from Halgene in NY with no sales tax collected. Call some of the dealers on Chrono24, I'm confident you could score one for $13000 bnib.

Do you go to Westime?

They generally offer me 20% off the SS pieces w/o asking

I saw that you purchased from the Boutique in Beverly Hills, if I am not mistaken. How much of a discount did you receive there?

Maxxy · 31 March 2016, 12:27 AM

Does anyone have any guidance what (if any) discount is available on the 15202ST? I've seen a few at the Boutiques but they are holding to a zero discount policy.

Thx.

schwartz914 · 31 March 2016, 12:51 AM

I would say 30 percent off as well. no more no less.

Lordofrolex · 31 March 2016, 06:30 AM

most i got from an AD in the USA for a white dial 15400 is out the door price of $14,500. Might as well buy it from the forums and get it for 1k cheaper.

dchang81 · 31 March 2016, 08:31 AM

You guys claiming 30% off at a dealer must be much better negotiators than me...
