Expected discount from AD on Cartier Tank

[HoosAir]

My dad is buying a new tank francaise for my mom. What sort of discount is reasonable to expect? It is not a brand I have purchased before.

In my experience minimal. I’d be happy with 10%.

Unfortunately, Cartiers don't get discounted much, which is too bad because, while very nice watches, I find them priced a bit on the high side. I would, however, expect a 15% discount.

If you walk into Cartier just tell them their watch sales are down 26 percent this year if they give you flack about a discount.

Thanks all. I was quoted 15%, so it sounds like that is a fair offer.

I think 15% is not bad for US. If you travel, I suspect that you will be able to get a better deal in EU in terms of discount rate. Then you will have to see if currency exchange rate and possible tax refund would make sense.

12-19% Depending on area!!!

10-15% tops at AD but no bueno at Boutique

Are they strong now? I bought a Drive the year it was released for -20%

[Kliminator]

Boutique doesn't discount. AD around 10% is doable

Just picked up a Panthere de Cartier watch for my wife for Christmas. Was able to get 9% off from the AD, which put it below the best gray market price I could find.

Have u bought from them before?

I would honestly prolly only think u could get something similar to tax free and a strap so 5-8% + strap. Try tho! Best

DavidSW got me a decent discount about a year ago
