How much do Authorized Dealers buy watches for? Or what percent off do they save directly through Breitling?

For example: if I were to purchase a Super Avenger from an AD for (say) $5,000 USD(the asking price) how much profit do they make?

I am basically looking to make an offer but I don't know where to start price-wise. I want to make an offer where obviously they are making money however, I would like to find that nice discount too!

Thanks all!

There are hundreds of threads on this that you can use the search function to find. It varies hugely by national market.

10% to 15% is standard, 20% is very good and 25% is excellent. 30% + borders on the dealer getting busted...

A lot, because if my memory serves me right, five grand would be above msrp.

Coasterkid summed it up pretty well. Some dealers wont budge past 15% no matter how hard you try, and others have no problem doing it. Its up to your dealer and your negotiating skillz.
