ND Sub advise
« on: September 24, 2011, 06:36:18 PM »
My buddy was offered new random serial 14060 for USD 5400 shipped. Should he take it or pass? Whats the current retail if available in Malaysia. Anyone?

Many thanks.

You mean complete set with box and paper or just the watch only? I think it is a bit on high side, since he is yr buddy, perhaps can nego down..

i think the price is not much different brand new from the AD. minus a few bucks. get it from an AD ..atleast why buying you can molest other watches too... and build a relationship.

I would go for a brand new one with the AD...
For that price, can get a brand new one at grey but if you can afford usd5400?
What's 15% extra?
You get a peace of mind, brand new watch, warranty with your name and get to build rapport with the AD...
And if there's anything wrong, you can always go back to where you bought it.
Although there are some good deals to be had buying online or pre-owned... but there are risks as well...

What I mean was buying brand new from AD is around 15% more than the usd5400...
