It would help if you stated what watch,but in general you should be able to get a better deal on most all precious metal watches as they have quite a large price mark up.

I was offered 15% off a WG Daytona last night. It was offered right off the bat from an AD I've never done biz with.

I would keep shopping. I would think you could get 15 percent anywhere.

You should have taken that my friend as they have dried up!! Just talk to any of the big grey dealers now. Rolex released too many initially and pulled them back in a big way. Look here at how few for sale now. Dealer cost is 38 back and no grey dealer buying watch for AD cost. I know for a fact grey dealers I speak with and big ones would gladly pay 27 back now.
