    That is probably your best deal.

    30% is highly unlikely especially for a brand like IWC.

    I know of one some years back who gave 25 on a F.A. Jones, 544203.

    I believe it. Back then the discounts were better and prices were much less.

    After shopping around a bit, I found an out of state AD offering 25% off. Deals are still out there, just harder to find.

    Would you like to ruin it for the people who have actually cultivated the relationship with this particular AD, which makes this deal possible?
    WTB - nothing for now!

    Reading RedLeg's post, it appears he just called around to see which AD can work with him. I didn't interpret this as building a relationship with an AD over a number of years so how much "cultivation" could have occured over the phone?

    A smart AD will not haggle over the phone, they can simply say, "we are competitive" and try to set up an
    appointment time.
