So I like to collect chronographs and there’s an AD not too far from me that has a nice selection of IWCs. Was thinking I could ask them if I buy a Portugieser chrono and a little prince (for a total of $3k higher than I’d have spent for them online), would that bump my chances of getting a SS GMT. Does this sound reasonable? Buying much more of their list priced merch would start to feel like a zero sum game (ie I can pay $6000 over msrp and get a Batman gray).
