Hello....first time poster. I'm looking to purchase my first high end watch and have likely settled on an amazing Blackbird with a blue face and a brushed metal bracelet. It is spectacular. However, I have no idea if it is priced ok. The watch is priced at $5,980 and the bracelet at $1,400. The dealer said the model is no longer in production....I believe he said it is last year's model. How do those prices sound to you? |

They sound like list price. Discount will depend on which part of the world you are in, but in the US you should be able to get 20%+ |

Assuming you're talking USD, the quoted price beats retail by $105, which isn't too good. A 20% discount is pretty standard, meaning you should be able to get the whole watch (bracelet included) for just under $6k. If the AD is trying to sell you just the watch head for that price, I wouldn't go for it. Yes, the watch has been discontinued, but stock is stock. It's not like it's some super-rare limited edition. If anything, selling the watch for 80% of the current retail price leaves him in pretty good shape, since he likely bought it prior to the last couple rounds of increases. |
