any more siting of the DSSD in the shop window in the uk at mrsp. hard to believe one made the window in the trafford centre manchester. gone now of course. i missed it by a couple of hrs, dam.

argee1977 · 29 May 2009, 10:24 PM

There have been a few, they're not that difficult to get these days, might be worth just phoning round Ernest Jones, Goldsmiths and other large chains.

CEG · 29 May 2009, 10:56 PM

Selfridges had one in the boutique last week... London store

I would try Berrys in Leeds (they had one 3 weeks ago hidden in the back) and saw one in the window in 'Lister Horsfall' Jewellers in Ilkley (West Yorkshire) around the same time.

If you call Berrys (where I have ordered my DJII from) then speak to 'Simon [Leicester]' who dealt with my transaction, and my mothers the week before hand. He is a great guy. If you let him know that I [James Helliwell] referred you then he may go the extra mile to help you out

dalew · 29 May 2009, 11:02 PM

was looking for one in either ernest jones or goldsmiths as i can get discount through both of them. i'm up working around manchester so looking around there or thereabouts..............

My mum was given 17.5% off a Cartier Ballon Bleu the weekend before I secured 15% off the new DJII...

agreed don't believe the hype

Sailor66 · 30 May 2009, 12:45 AM

Sorry Dalew. It was me that beat you to the DSSD at Goldsmiths in the Trafford Centre.
I was up in the Lakes on Tues and whilst showing my friend this very site I spotted the posting from a fellow TRF'er advising me of this particular DSSD whereabouts. 10 mins later I'd put 500 down on it and picked up the bad boy on Weds. Apparently it had been in their window for a few days which really surprised me as its in such a popular retail centre.

Good Luck in your quest of tracking another one down. It's a fantastic piece that's well worth the effort. Hopefully like buses another one will be along shortly

One on sales corner, BNIB, below list, that isn't shifting, may be worth a PM

umster · 30 May 2009, 03:58 AM

Ernest jones in brent cross had one a few weeks ago not sure if it is still there.

Hey, I was in the Trafford Centre today!! Were you in Goldsmiths??

They had a TT GMTIIc behind the counter and a Yacht-master and LV Sub in the window.

If you're still after a Deepsea, let me know and i'll give you details of a contact at David Robinsons.

Welshwatchman · 30 May 2009, 05:15 AM

In April I was offered a six month old one for £4750 but passed on it.

magnet_UK · 30 May 2009, 10:31 PM

You have PM

allanofcalifornia · 30 May 2009, 10:42 PM

Is a DSSD that hard to get in the UK?

They have been several in EJ windows, so they are available new with your name on the warranty for £5211. There is no need to wait for this watch.
The preowned prices (not on this forum!) are heading south fast to reflect this.

dalew · 1 June 2009, 04:20 AM

Finally picked up a BNIB DSSD today from goldsmith in nottingham (uk), thanks simon (magnet uk) for the tip off. It had been sitting in shop window for a couple of days. Seems sales are slowing SLIGHTLY on this watch in the current climate. I wouldn't be paying any more than mrsp for this watch as i think if you phone around you'll get one at that price, no discounts as yet...they still seeing very few milgauss GV and a list of 20 or so for an SS daytona...

It varies - my AD, for example, has recently had a few names put on the list, whilst before one had reached the window, so for this one example, I'd say there's a 4-6 month wait.

Must say, I've not heard of any UK AD's discounting a brand new Deepsea by £549!

Ok, I've had a look at Signet. What's the next step? Contact Ernest Jones?

Cheers,

The rush to buy the DSSD is over. List is discounted quite heaving in Japan by gray dealers.

Now buy some shares but make sure that your dealer is prepared to notify Signet of your purchase.
