yah i thought at least courtesy 5% :o

by right, they don't need give if you never ask.

depends on salesperson. i would personally never buy from boutiques, makes no sense. unless you hardcore collector, boutique will usually have goodies that they will offer u before giving to the public

Anyone can suggest a physical store for an extensive collection of Mido watches?
Thanks!

boutique no discount for the moonwatch? :eek: wow.

anyway most ADs no stock for the moonwatch already except probably a couple of sapphire left.

strong rumours is that new moonwatch will be on the new calibre 3861 and price will increase.
if they change the movement, still can market it as "flight qualified" meh?

If you're considering relatively new releases, you have a few options:

Cartier Santos ADLC WSSA0039 (RRP S$11,100)

Zenith A384 Revival 'Shadow' (RRP S$12,000)

Panerai PAM01661 (RRP S$18,400)

IWC Pilot's Watch Top Gun (RRP S$8,650)

Hublot 40th Anniversary Black Ceramic (RRP ~S$14,000), limited to 200 pcs.

HUBLOT-34-of-73.jpg


TAG Heuer Monza 40th Anniversary (RRP ~S$7,000) -- feels lacking without a Heuer; that being said, this model seems to be discontinued, but still available around stores.

Oh man appreciate all the replies with the stores potentially carrying Mido and I will contact them all.
In the case where I might need to purchase on Chrono24, anyone had experience they can share? And how to have the watch authenticated etc... Many thanks.
