Will an AD offer a discount on 5396R?

I am interested in getting a 5396R. But my nearby AD says no discount at all. Is it true that PP AD does not offer any discount on dress watches?

I'm sure that you could get a discount when you make it clear that you are an serious buyer

If the the AD says no discount you’ll need a counter argument for why you should get one. So why should they give you one?

Many ADs can afford to say no to discount requests. Particularly with Patek breathing down their necks to keep the discount rate as low as possible.

Tell them thanks for your time and that you will keep them in mind should you ever need a pegging.

This piece is attractively priced on the secondary market. I check those numbers out before you commit to new without accommodation.
