Re: Heads Up! I Saw A Bargain Here! 2020
I want to share with you all, I have bought many many watches from Touch of Modern, and gotten many deals that were pretty good to say the least, but this year in particular, I have had an extremely high rate of watches I received that had some defect or another, several with hands out of adjustment, and many many more I received with scratched cases or bracelets. literally about 70% over a 3-4 month period and every single order I made in June, arrived damaged in some way. I'm certain the vendors were getting rid of shop display models and customer returns, but they listed the items as new in each case, and the prices were decent deal prices but not the best, what made them deals were the ToM promos for store credit.
Touch of Modern is a great place to find good deals, but please everyone be certain to thoroughly inspect your watches with a magnifier when you receive them, if I hadn't had this habit, I would have put them on and then when I later saw the scratches I would not have known if I made them while wearing them in the first day or two, or if they were there already. Vendors on ToM are certainly taking advantage of their customers this year in particular, maybe it's a tough year for everybody, but we don't deserve to pay new prices for used/display model/or customer return watches, regardless of what kind of year it's been. That being said, ToM has a credit back promo right now, that's why I wanted to post this today, so folks are aware. Many vendors at ToM are regulars and I would expect this behavior is going to continue, so be careful and inspect your watches before wearing them!

Slightly lower now at Ashford with Code AFFETN699.
(Discount not immediately applied until Proceeding to the check out.)
And if TCB 3% back works it could end up at $678.
As thedius pointed out, at this price it is NOT likely the full kit with 3 straps (especially when another strap option sells on the same site).

The yourdeal promo code at dscountwatchstore should get you 10%, and BeFrugal and others cash back were at 8% last I checked, that's how I bought mine and I did get credited the 8%, so it is then 648 - 8% = 596 after cash back. this was posted on before, like last week, by someone else, minus the cash back part

Re: Heads Up! I Saw A Bargain Here! 2020
Agree, and I actually sent an inquiry to the contact info on their website and got a 'undeliverable' response. Like a few Kickstarter projects ,this is likely enamel paint which is just a glossy paint, and the prices of their other watches with non-'enamel' dials are the exact same, with similar same specs, so i don't see how it could be vitreous enamel, which requires kiln firing etc....ManOnTime wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 9:59 amI'm pretty sure it's just the name. Their website and social media channels refer to it as "white enamel style".WhaleTail wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 9:39 amHey BillionaireDoors, is this enamel dial real or just the name of that model?BillionaireDoors wrote:$349.99 at ToM. Miyota 8251 movement and white enamel dial.
Very tempting since TOM is automatically putting 20% store credit in cart.

Couple of deals at Kohls. I don't think either is an all-time low:
SRPD55 on a bracelet. Down to $189.44 plus tax (free shipping) with code FAMILYSAVE:
https://www.kohls.com/product/prd-43992 ... sp?prdPV=1
Blue Duro down to $48 with FAMILYSAVE.
https://www.kohls.com/product/prd-43119 ... p?prdPV=29
Note you have to spend $75 for free shipping so unless you get something else it may not be worth it. You can also see if any local Kohls has one because pickup is free.

I wish that watch were 38mm?
Re: Heads Up! I Saw A Bargain Here! 2020
Same blue Casio duro on Amazon for $48 with free shipping if you prime
Edit: shows at $69, but it's actually $48 on the site.

I know what movie it's supposed to reference, but every time I see it...
Anyone else? No? Okay, just me then.

Jomashop has the rose gold & blue Moonview in stock again for $174.99.
Not the cheapest these been, but it's a bit less than what officialwatchdeals on ebay is asking for a refurbished one right now.
