Pas Paris

[Ralexandernyc]

Not in Paris. I will be in Paris for two months starting in early September. My plan was to purchase a SS Submariner Date at the beginning of that stay. Calls to five of the smaller ADs reveals that at a minimum there is a three month wait. One dealer said maybe at the end of the year. Another referred me to an AD at Charles DeGaulle Airport. The airport AD's response was that while they did not have one in stock at the moment, they could have one when I arrived. Needless to say, given the demand, none of the ADs were flexible on price. But the VAT varied, ranging from 11.5% at the airport to 17% at one of the dealers in Paris proper.
