They are around, but the prices are ridiculous. If you see one $1500 or under let me know. Thanks in advance.

Mine before I so, so stupidly sold it...

Great looking watch. Do you know the reference # ?

Found it! Ref. #3902-186-LBN9, per Chrono24. And you weren't kidding about them being pricey!

Folks... looking for a deal (ie. preferable sub $300 or even sub $250) for a PADI mini turtle (SRPC41).

One thing that might help is to click the red envelope to sign up for a "back in stock" notification for Discount Shop in the event they get more in. All of their mini-turtles have been very reasonably priced however the SRPC41 is recently out of stock. I'll keep an eye out.

I need a hard side travel roll/case for two or maybe three watches. These on Amazon have caught my eye as very reasonably priced and functional.

Anyone have anything better?
I wish that watch were 38mm?

A more generalized bargain-related question: When do Ebay coupons tend to show up? Other than the Black Friday through end of the year.

@Boourns: Last time I went searching around this was what I wound up throwing in my shopping list:

It could be crap for all I know though.

It has been suggested in the past that they show up more near the end of a quarter, as Ebay uses them to boost their sales for their financials. But I am not sure if anyone has tracked that to see if it is true.

Looking for a Certina DS PH200M. I love this watch, but am having a tough time finding it. Have submitted an offer on Ebay, but if not accepted then I will be on the hunt for this beauty.

Edit: Found this at Jura Watches for GBP 410 + 10 shipping. Went ahead and bought it.

I am looking for a Ball Engineer II or III. Something with Arabic numbers like this. I think I may have to wait till next turkey day for a deal, but if anyone comes across a one let me know.

I think the prices at CWS are already pretty good. $783 for that exact watch or less for the white dial. If you subscribe to their email listing I think they send a code for $10 or $20 off. Get another 3% back with ebates.

M111 who I believe is also a member here, has one for sale on WUS.
Although I’m fairly sure it has a black dial.

as far as 2018 is concerned there was a coupon on average once a month from May onward....maybe earlier. Time of the month seemed to vary. 10% was most common, 15% was relatively rare, I think there was a 20% last May?
