·Good morning everyone. I hope you are all well and had a great weekend. I’m looking to get my first luxury watch and have decided to go for a Speedmaster 38 (Reference: 324.30.38.50.02.001) due in part to my small wrists. I’ve gone to all the local ADs and even the boutique in my area (Miami) to see the colors and briefly discussed pricing with the sales people. At Mayors the gentleman told me that the market has changed and that discounts that could be had before can no longer be had. At Westime, I mentioned I was going to see other colors at the Boutique, and the sales person told me that if I returned he’d take off the taxes. And at the boutique, I touched the aspect of a discount and he told me that since they are selling direct they don’t do anything. I’m not entirely familiar with the Omega market and from my research on the forum I have seen that Omega seems to be cutting back on ADs offering deals and that the Boutique generally doesn’t discount anything. Having said that I have seen some people getting the Boutique to throw in some bands or discount the taxes. Do any of you fine folks think that a deal could be had, or is the market really that bad? Alternatively do you have any contacts in the South Florida region that would want to make a deal through an AD or Boutique? I want to make sure my watch has the Omega warranty. I’m only 25 years old and when I walk into these stores I feel so out of place and I sense that they feel it too, but the last thing I want is to be taken advantage of. Thank you all in advance!
