Recommended AD or gray market dealers?

Hey Guys,

My wife has found a watch that she likes quite a bit that I'd like to pick up for her.
Ref: W7234812/BE50/477X/A12BA.1

With the resale on the brand being what is is I really don't want to do MSRP, anyone have a recommendation on where to go? I don't think she'd ever want to part with it but also not looking to take a hit on it right out of the gate.

This watch seems to be a bit off as the only online place I can find is WatchMaxx

Your recommendations are appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

You should talk to a dealer who sells Breitling.
They should be able to offer you some discount.

I've had my eye on a specific galactic 36 for a long time too (actually check govberg jewelers, they usually have a lot of pre owned Breitlings)

And last I looked, the 36 has been discontinued.

There is a 36 one for sale here but it's not my color choice. Maybe your wife would compromise.

Talk to your local Breitling dealer!

May be worthwhile to check out your AD. I was in a Breitling AD this past weekend and without even trying the sales rep told me that she could do 25-30% off if I was serious about purchasing one of the models I was looking at.

THIS scares me a bit... 25-30% initial offer was probably holding back a few points as well in case you countered. I love that as a buyer but long term not sure how long the brand can support that!

Wow, sorry for late reply thank you for your replies! My "local" AD is about an hour drive and from what I understand doesn't stock much as they're a new "boutique".

I'll give it a go though!
