How Much...should I pay for a BNIB GMT

116710 GMT II-C BNIB

I would appreciate your feedback as to what would be a fair price to pay for a brand new GMT-II, 116710 Ceramic.

Retail is $6,825

Thank you all for your kind attention.

Maybe you can get 10 % discount on it, but they are not often discounted in the States.

Since the model has only been available for a year I kinda doubt that model will be discounted if you purchase from an AD. Plus the fact that its SS does not help much either.

Maybe your AD might wave off the sales tax for you but you may have to do a little negotiating.

Here in San Francisco, there are no discounts for the 116710 at all, not even for the 16610 for that matter.

where do you want to purchase watch?
BNIB from an AD or BNIB from a reseller/gray?

Hopefully from an Authorised Dealer..it is to be given to a VIP as a gift
and I want all American Papers...but on the other hand I do not want to pay full price.
I have an offer from a gray importer at 6200

I would think $625 for all papers and warranty in giftee's name would be worth it. Wouldn't want to apprear cheap with a gift to a VIP. You spend$6200 and the giftee does a little research and realizes no warranty and may think less of you. I'd definitely spend the extra to be safe.

You should be able to get that watch at 5-10% back of list. The hysteria is completely gone here in Atlanta.
