Hi, I'll be in central london soon, and might purchase a rolex while the pound is still weak.
So are the prices of the SS/ TT sports model at eg. watches of switzerland competitive ?

According to some people, getting a discount in London is nigh impossible,because the money is arround and people will pay top price for them. You should really phone arround AD's out of the city for the model you want (thats unless you are just looking for any Rolex) ask if they have the model (dont mention any price) and travel to another AD. you will get a better price that way. My father-in-law got a good deal at our AD on a BNIB SS GMT IIc for £3900 cash.

I agree, discounts in London (and much of the UK in fact) are not common. I struggled just to get 3% on a DJ. Don't even bother asking for a discount on the SS sport range. They will look at you funny.

I bought mine at an AD and didn't get any discount...

watches of switzerland doesnt usually dicsount, unless it a TT or precious models. Not many ADs would discount a SS Rolex unless you are a returning customer.

the most you would get on a SS would be your VAT refund, which is 17.5% at the moment is you buy at the airport.

which SS sports models are you looking for?

You might wanna check Bond street, there're lots of pre-owned shops.
