VC overseas dual time 7900v
Last year i registered my interest in a VC overseas DT blue dial and my AD called recently to say he has one in stock. He offered me a 10-15% discount on retail. Do you guys think this is a fair deal or can more discount be requested.
Why I'm asking this is because prior to this year i could afford this with not much issue. However I've recently sold my place and bought a new home so cash flow is pretty tight even though i have more than enough funds in investable assets (shares etc) that can be liquidated if necessary. My AD mentioned that come April this year all VC overseas blue dial is going to be boutique only and he may not be able to get it for me again by the time my finances stabilise in a few months when the proceeds from my sale come in. I think I'll probably pull the trigger because I've been eyeing the model for awhile but would like to get more opinions.

That’s a watch of interest to me and I think it’s a great deal, especially for blue. My only two points of hesitation have been size (I have a small wrist) and I want to see the black in person.

Whether you should pull the trigger depends on your situation entirely, so please take my opinion with a pinch of salt.
For me personally: -The watch itself is gorgeous (I would love to own one myself). -This seems like a great deal. Additionally, I think this watch will perform very well in terms of value retention in the coming period. This could be a factor to consider if you care about that. |

The black dial is great too and should be readily avaliable if I'm not wrong.
