Tourneau pricing
I understand that Tourneau typically doesn't discount Rolex but how are they on other brands? Anyone here have experience with the King of Prussia or Atlantic City stores?

Tourneau DOES discount Rolex. At least in their Chicago store. And, yes, they discount everything. (and honestly, I thought my 69th post would be sexier...)

I bought a DJ at the vegas tourneau in aug and was told buy several sales people that they NEVER discount rolex's. I then bought a panerai at the tourneau timemachine ( i believe the largest store) and was told that panerai is in such high demand that no one discounts them. However i have received discounts on IWC and tag's...

I have 4 rolex's.. 2 of which i bought from Tourneau. they DO NOT discount... their LA store and MI stores do not and they said the rest of them don't as well... company rules... Same goes for the fact that you can only trade a rolex for a rolex at Tourneau... Even if you wanted to trade in a IWC for a rolex, they won't do it.. So the chi town store is doing something they are not supposed to do no matter how many watches you buy from them. They did give me some money off of my breitling i bought from them tho...

Again, Tourneau would not make any money if they weren't competitive. And they are. Expect discounts from every single AD in the country - or they lose business to every other AD. Who would ever pay MSRP for a Rolex? |

Hmmm...I wonder why my experience with this company is so different from everyone else's? BTW, I never traded in a rolex, so I have no experience with that. But the discounts, well....the Chicago Tourneau discounts, that's for sure. I wonder if it's because the rest of the midwestern ADs discount and they have to? Perhaps it's just unique to the Windy City. Do ya' think?

why dont you try going or calling any other store other than the chi town store and ask... they do discount watches, they gave me a nice deal on my breitling, but rolex they just don't... it's not like were trying to lie to you here and were not saying you didn't get some sorta discount, but when you said they do it for you because you buy a lot from them or ect... it means nothing. i can buy just about any watch in their store and they still would not give me a discount... company rules.. call around if you don't believe us..
but the chi town store is doing something off from the rest of the |

My understanding is that in the K of P store it depends on the model. Never much on the subs but they move significantly on some others.

They (Tourneau) have creative financing...no interest for 24 mos. Doing the math, that can work out to well over 10% for those that insist on haggling. I got a great Breitling Emergency for about $250/mo.

They did not mention any discounts in SF. Perhaps I was not serious enough. Still, any discount that I get is followed up by a friendly 8.25% tax :)
