AP Boutique: Discount possible?

Hey guys,

I'm considering getting a 15202BA champagne dial (love the classic/vintage
vibe). Does AP boutiques offer any discount if they're motivated?

Thanks,

Nope and unless you are a very good customer it will be impossible to get the watch in the first place.
Good luck

Discount what I heard is impossible from Boutique but if you have already good relationship with them, there is no harm in asking.

Good luck

If you have a good relationship with the boutique then you know better than to ask. It’s clear when dealing with the boutique that you don’t ask for a discount. They reward purchases with gifts as and when they have something that they think is appropriate and they also offer (as you know) golf days and factory visits and events that they might be sponsoring like Art Basel. It’s not worth offending them to get a negligible amount of money off.

I 100% agree and this is the right advice to give. So in light of what Ash mentioned, the discount is not really worth it that is IF given.
