looking at 25% discount or more

All discounts are depending the AD, stock level, model, how the numbers are looking on AP RO, whether you are a valued client by the AD.

Plus... will you be paying 100% cash?

Sometimes AD might be willing to give you added rebates if you pay in cash

Thanks for the pictures guys.. serious poisoning.

Personally i preferred the white dial version. the older model (40mm) seems to look more symetrical to me instead of the new model (42mm) which i find it a little too chunky. It seems a little more dressy, and less sporty. Most importantly, i like the subtle look. AND, i prefer the red hand, as compared to that orange hand.

That say, the new model does indeed cost more, and i don't think i am able to source for the a brand new previous model 16570 in any of the ADs now for a direct comparison.

Even famous 2nd hand retailers i see online are selling it at around high 5k and mid 6k, which seems to add on a premium as compared, to the original price when it was still available.

White face one more special. But when you see it in the flesh, black looks nicer.

That's the classic example of the 'rolex appreciation' story people talk about.

should be about 1.2k to 1.4k after discount

some people over here got it for $990 during one of the credit card promotion some years back.
Ahh. Anymore recommendations similar to the sinn 556a(similar to bell & ross 123 too.)

Else will just look around for grey sets or just hoot at THG
