Hey guys, thanks very very much for the response so far.
To answer some of your questions or curiosity...when I was in the AD a second time with my dad getting them to put an extra link in his Yachtmaster, I spoke with the rep and inquired further about the watch. This was the second time I had looked at it and when he told me he would work with me significantly he mentioned "we could probably do 20% or $1600", which would be right in line with what you guys are saying would be a "deal"
What I was wondering, if I purchased it at $1600, I would still have tax. My thought was offer $1500 tax included and accept $1500 plus tax, which here is 7% and that would make it $1605 out the door. I mainly wanted to make sure I would be ok putting that money into it and that I am not looking at a $1200ish watch or something. I guess money talks and bs walks, so you guys have any issues with that qouted pricing?
My main concern is not about a smoking deal as I would not be looking to flip it, but would want to wear it and use it and no reason to put too much into it either. They had taken it in on trade from a regular customer after selling it to him new, so this dealer knows its history if you will and has all of the appropriate paperwork, box, etc.
It does have a black dial (only one I personally would want) and it does have what I believe to be the Pro II style bracelet. This is a picture I found on google images of exactly what it looks like, bracelet/dial and all. EDIT: it also has multiple removable links on both sides of the clasp. I would guess around 3 on each side, because I recall it being too big for my wrist and making the comment I would need to size it.
Thanks again for help so far and a preliminary thanks for any more input you guys may have!
