Possible to get brand new for less than 40k?
No need to be from AD.
I bought mine from a grey dealer (sealed) in May 2015 for $38k. Maybe the price has gone up, I dunno.

But once I decided to buy a 5712, I hawked over every website, grey dealer sites I knew. And finally caught one that the asking price was lower than usual and bargained down from there.

I think it's still possible, but diligence and patience is required.

NICE, whats the damage like?

¥435,100, tax-free price...

Cheaper than getting from boutique in SG, have not seen any ADs carrying this yet...

I would have got it locally if our grey dealers had any stocks, but I guess profit margins for Tag Heuer timepieces are not fantastic enough...

I was quoted $5k for this piece by WoS... GST included.
