When looking to buy an expensive watch, are there any tricks to get a good discount?

I have learned that most luxury watches have a 30% retail add on and that you can negotiate down 25-30%. Can you go lower?


Answer
I bought my wife a movado last year. I went to a jewelry store not a major department store. the method I used (and have used several times with great success) is to have the cash I'm ready to spend on me (it doesn't work well with credit/debit cards) Do some homework beforehand so you know what you are willing to spend. I go in and establish a good rapport with the sales agent and look a several low to mid range items before looking at the high end pieces. then I ask about prices and explain I only have so much to spend. i only have cash and it is all my money for the gift. they usually come down in price, if they don't I start looking at the lowest priced item they showed me. at this point the sales person sees their big sale quickly fading away. since most sales organizations are based on commission and have commission accelerators based on total amount sold or average order size. the small sale will do them no good and they have already "wasted" over an hour on you. all they need to do to get every penny out of you is to drop the "lowest" price another 5%. 9 times out of 10 the sales person bites. they get their sale and you save your money everyone wins.

Does Breitling make a Navitimer, or any model watch in a quartz movement?

I hate automatic movements because they always just seem to lose time for me. Quartz are much more reliable. Does Breitling make a quartz movement Navitimer, or any other model?

Also, what other executive/luxury watch brands makes quartz movement watches?
Could you also provide a link to any of the quartz movements you find?



Answer
Breitling Navitimer models are made with Mechanical Automatic Self-Winding Chronometer Movement, and it's Swiss Made.

If you'd like quartz movement specifically you could take a look at Cartier watches:

Or look for any other fine luxury watches:
