My first post so here goes.
Evening all, I'm looking to purchase a Daytona 116503 from a AD as wait times look pretty reasonable. Has anyone had any first hand experience of getting a good discount with one of these. I managed a 4 percent on my Sub 116613LB from WOS as was the 2nd watch I purchased from them but wanted a little more in the Daytona as I know a GD that I can get one from for £10750 but I have a thing about my watches being UK registered / with my name in the card.

Any help appreciated. Thanks !

I would look for 10-15% off this watch at an AD and 20% off on the GM. It takes a big hit as soon as it's out of the AD even with the stickers on. I wouldn't pay more than the equivalent of $13,400. Are you sure you really need the warranty and name on your card? The problem is that they have to order it and they tend not to discount stuff that is ordered. Is there another AD that has some in stock? Even if you have to travel a bit it would be worth it. That's $3.5-4k that you'll lose right away. The only Daytona worth paying retail with no discount for is a SS one. For PM Daytonas you can get always get 20% off from the GM and even ADs should give you a nice discount since they aren't exactly selling like much cheaper SS watches.
