Hard to say in the U.K., but in the states 15% is a good starting point. I ended up going with a trusted gray dealer and got about 30% or so.

I think - at least in the US - Jomashop has the best price for a brand new Speedy moon watch.

I have bought a Cartier watch through JomaShop in part because Cartier only has a 2-year warranty. A new Omega has a 5-year warranty and I do find value in that.
Instead of purchasing through a gray market dealer for my Speedy Pro, I found a dealer on the Rolex Forum (member name: mdgrwl). His name is Matt and he has a website named the WatchExchange. I recently bought a brand new Speedy Pro with the Omega 5-year warranty for a price comparable to the gray market dealer. |

In NY, best I was able to negotiate (I tried two places) was 8.5% (tax). They both said these are hot watches with the 50th coming up. Other watches they would discount further if I wanted one of them.

In Canada 20% seems to be the norm. I'd buy from Jomashop if I were in the US.

I'm looking around for one also to add to my collection. I tried two AD's local to be but neither would offer more than 15% off rrp. I ended up buying another watch on my watchlist, a 2nd hand Tag Heuer Carrera Calibre 16 with red second hand and sub dial hand. The Moon watch is still on the list though!!

You will get 10% straight off the bat in a U.K. AD. 15% at a push.
I have 2 big AD’s here who I do quite a lot with and I can’t get more than 15. You can get more if you are prepared to use a seller on chrono or somewhere like that. In region of 20-25%. |

Yes, it’s 3,680 for the heseltite and approx 4.200 for the sapphire mate. Price rise came in 1 jan for boutiques and has just been passed through the AD’s in last couple of weeks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
