youll get that discount on any gold / bi metal rollie as as soon as you take them out the box they are worth mucho less.

i have a gold president, love it, but its not worth the £22k retail,

A bit like cars really.

At least watches last longer.

I got over 15% off my day date at Harrods. I asked for a discount they asked if I would buy today if the price was right and I agreed. A quick phone call to management did the trick. Don't think Harrods sell fakes.

Did the same in another store when I bought Mrs BC's Cartier.

How do you get 15 percent off? I only get offered 10 percent days and I'm a black tier card holder.

true, but the myth that rollies hold their value isnt correct when it comes no not steel models.

I asked and agreed to buy on the day.

I got atiny bit betther than 8% off my Explorer 1 39mm last August, I phoned around 3 dealers and got it agreed on the phone, with the only previous relationship being I bought a questionable Michael Kors watch for my wife from them (which I didn't actually mention)

The other 2 offered nothing, but I told my local one I had been offered 10% elsewhere and actually mentioned a dealer from another group in a specific location to make it more plausible :-)

I paid £3950 rather than £4300 so a worthwhile saving for the sake of a few phone calls - we obviously had the full experience in the dealer which was excellent and have since been back to two "VIP" events which were both excellent.
