I got a water and extra leather pouch in Vienna, but I went to buy a watch and not some non-sense promo material. I was happy I got a watch... My wife got wallet, pen, and extra leather pouch. She used the pouch and of course the watch. Never had any use for the other stuff.

Can I ask what you bought to get that much of a discount from a AD?

I love all the blokes that get umbrella's and golf balls that cracks me up. I was curious more then anything as I thought a travel pouch would have been useful? or even a polishing cloth?
Im very happy and they do look after me in other ways. Only a month now and I will have a ST Blue Sky Dweller. Maybe I will get the other Luggage tag!

Dblue in March got a couple of travel bags and a bottle of champagne
Daytona C a couple of weeks later didn't get anything, I wasn't complaining though.

The only time I ever got freebies in UK- I had a few decent measures of whisky when I bought a pm Daytona in London
Haha, but I think of all the gifts here mentioned, the chocolates are the ones I want the most, probably because I'm hardly allowed any these days.

Ha it seems like most of the set ups are pretty vanilla. They did have a pretty decent whisky selection..which was a little surprising to me.

I always demand a discount, because my (grey) dealer does not have umbrellas, ballpoint or such.
