Best place to buy vacheron constantin

[schrodinger]

I'm looking for a watch for a present for the mrs. I'd prefer to buy in the UK in case of issues etc, but then I do love a deal, so I thought I'd ask the great and good here what's best.

It's a surprise gift so she won't be coming with me to pick, if that makes any difference.

I don't think there's a dealer outside of London on this one. None of the AD's I've approached, such as Rolex, AP and Patek dealers outside of the M25 can source them.

Happy to be proven wrong.

I've bought several from Owen and Robinson in Leeds.

Indubitably.

London is ideal. Any recommendations on best dealers for stock and price?

In terms of stock, there's a boutique on Old Bond Street, I doubt they can be beaten. Are we talking new or second hand..?

New.

I know thats the official outlet - was wondering if anyone has experience of deals from them or not?

Hmm. Iconic seem to offer 11% off across the board, I'd be surprised if the boutique couldn't get close to that. But no, no experience of them, sorry.

yes Ive dealt with Robinsons in Leeds but only to obtain an "extract from the archive" they were bloody useless as were the shop in Harrods. I have 2 Vacherons and they are fabulous watches.

I don't think you will do much of a deal …….probably cheaper abroad due to the exchange rates

The one on Bond Street, and I had them down to 9% off an Overseas Dual Time.
