New one? It's possible. There was once when an AD in my country had a pre-renovation sale and was selling about 2 of them at 40% off retail. Gone very fast

Think it depends on the AD, but it's definitely possible.
I got mine new from Andrew Michaels 30% off retail.

Also when I was in Doha couple of weeks ago, the AD there was also selling Chronomats for 30% off.

Gentlemen, can we be a bit careful in quoting AD names and discount percentages, especially when those ADs are friends of BreitlingSource.

No rules against discussions so I am not going to moderate but we know that a) Breitling monitor this site and b) Breitling secret shop ADs based on comments read here. Let's not cause difficulties for our sponsors please.

Not necessarily, just avoid publicly naming ADs associated with large discounts. There is tremendous value for members in understanding what is possible in terms of pricing / discounts in different markets and (unlike some forums) that type of discussion is allowed here. Let's just keep the public talk generic and put specifics in PM.

Breitling seem to think that secret shopping their highest performing ADs is a more appropriate price protection strategy than more market alignment between wholesale and retail pricing and clamping down on grey market so we have to deal with their inability to run a business properly.

30% is def possible as resale is pretty poor on these models. 25% would be my minimum.
