I want to buy my self a Frank Muller in the not to distant future. Can anyone recommend the best place to purchase one. I'm off to New York in the near future so maybe there may be a bargain to be had there, any advice would be much appreciated.

Big discounts available on FM watches as they are not particularly well regarded by watch people. Generally they are seen to be an (overpriced) flashy upstart of a brand favored by footballers and the like... another one is jacob+co (those big ugly multi colored things).

If i were you i would do some more research and perhaps consider some other brands like Audemars Piguet, Vacheron Constantin, Jaeger Le Coultre (v.nice) etc... if you are dead set on FM then look for 50% off rrp as they are not good sellers generally. good luck.


cannot see a 50% off rrp but will have a go.

good question,

definatly not tag and brietling,

omega speedmaster and planet ocean seem to,

but not sure really,

any one ideas?


Defo agree that TAG & Breitling don't hold there money but lets face it there basically a mass produced watch. As mentioned any rare watch will hold up well, but that's the general rule with any item be it a watch or a car.
As i posted I'm off across the pond soon so as you guys have mentioned I'm going to haggle hard. TBH if i don't receive a good discount i will walk.

Yes, you do see chavs searching for Double Red Sea-Dwellers, Comex, red Submariners, pre crown guard Subs, Paul Newman Daytonas, Milgauss subs and Steve McQueen Explorers don't you??? Just because a chav done good has a gawdy gold bling machine on their wrist doesn't mean that Rolex doesn't make/hasn't made some stunning and very cool watches! IMO, of course!
