Exactly and AMEN. No way for the price. I think it was actually $2,200. I asked if I could get a discount bc it was "damaged" and the gentleman on the phone said no, but could get it repaired free. No way again! Are you kidding me remove the crystal and start tinkering with the watch? Lol! Nope.

I will wait for it to arrive at the outlets or some sale. Funny, I bought 16mm strap last night on Ebay. Oops. The head was also smaller than I expected. Lovely watch. More due in October if anybody has there eye on it :smile: I have a band I can sell ya! Lol!

Onward with the shopping...... *sigh*. Bummer.

I have this watch (and WOW, is it stunning) and I got it from a local jeweler for $1250. I was willing to pay full price for it because I wanted it so much, but going through the jeweler was much, much cheaper. I paid all cash though.

Question for thread about mother of pearl (MOP).
Are these 3 watches MOP? The first 2 are ebay, the last one is mine. The colors seem too "flat" to be MOP, no sheen etc.

I don't ever remember a 50%/40% sale. What I recall from last black friday was 40%/30%. And I've never heard of an additional % off on top of a 50/40 or 40/30.

But the difference was that the limited edition watches where not discounted from list price, then. They came in discounted. Like the Urban (full size)- if you could find a limited edition, they were $1599 white tagged (retail was $3299). Then you got the 40%/30% off the $1599 white tag, so you could get lots of watches for under $700. Whereas today they go off the list price, the lowest you can get watches for is closer to $1K for the expensive ones.

The refurb prices stayed the same as before. They are still $799 so if you can find any of those, you can get a watch for the $300s.

So those CSX mosaics were $1995 - 50/25 then? Yes thats about $750. Probably as good as it gets for those unless you can get a refurb, now. Because 50/25 is better than 40/30.

The new pricing at WS sucks......refurbished is the best way to go if you can some! The Fossil in Leesburg VA used to get a lot of refurbs but the WS is getting way more Michele's. I think because the SA get such a good discount, they see the refurbs first and grab them up! Also some of the outlets have call lists for their frequent customers and they snitch the refurbs up and sell them on eBay! I brought a blue MOP pave diamond Deco for $700 and it was a refurb and I know it was way cheaper it I had to have it!IMG_1473723740.044290.jpg

Wow- another one I have never seen. Really beautiful and versatile with the blue!
Some of those square face watches are actually Deco II, its great that one takes the standard deco bracelets.

Love the entire look and the diamond bracelet, too! The blue in the cuff really brings out the face of the watch.
