I received an empty Casio GA 2100 box from Tilly's. They made me create a claim and told me to wait a week for the resolution. So be careful while unboxing, check the watch box immediately and keep the tracking number.

You could pick these up, BRAND NEW, for under $500 all day long a couple of years ago. But even more recently (like YESTERDAY recently!) they were on Prime Day sale, again, BRAND NEW, for $744.33.

When you have a time machine available, let me know and I'll happily post those deals.

It's that OCD, gotta post those deals!

Man I hope it never wears off, if John P. found a cure we'd all be screwed...

The Gemnation Deal of the Day looks to be a good deal.
But there's always slightly better, especially since Daily Deals cannot be returned or exchanged, but still qualify for warranty and other terms. Cannot be combined with coupons or promo codes.

Junghans Meister MEGA, model # 058/4801.00/ 058-4801.00
Deal of the Day price is $699
List price is $1,190

https://www.gemnation.com/watches/Deal-Of-The-Day.html

Slightly cheaper from Serious Watches for US buyers AND they're an AD.

Sale price is €699
Without VAT is €577.69 (roughly $676.13)
List price is $1,190

https://www.seriouswatches.com/products ... 58-4801-00

And only $714 for Inner Circle members with [mention]riveredgejewelers[/mention] discount, but also AD and likely will deliver quicker.

How about some solid gold watches to use your ToM gift cards on?

Paul Picot 40mm with Lemania 8810 movement used by Breguet among others for $4899 before discounts. $3899 sounds like a deal.

Image

But why wear a tiny gold watch when you can get one that is 46mm diameter and17mm thick with a solid gold engraved case back? $9299 before discounts.

Thanks. I pulled the trigger on a Laco Bell X1 last night. Really good price. Lower than a few preowned models on the Bay.

First time buying from timebyme. So far so good. Received a quick confirmation just minutes after I placed the order. This morning, received an it’s shipped notice with a tracking number and a notice from DHL that I should have it by Friday.

Seems like good c.s., much like Serious Watches. Now if only they sold Stowa and Archimede with similar discounts.
Update. Have to say I’m extremely impressed with timebyme. Ordered the Laco Bell X1 Sunday evening. Watch arrived in Redondo Beach California from Germany Wednesday afternoon. That is quick in normal times, but in the age of Covid it’s lightning quick. They kept me apprised of progress daily.

Would happily buy from them again.

I'd find it very hard to resist if the discounts were for the Mega Solar Max Bills...

The black dial version of this watch is available on eBay for $1,999, new from the watch outlet. 42mm, monopusher using a modified ETA2892 and just 13.7mm thick. A good deal for either the blue or black. If it were 2mm smaller I would have given it a try.

This woman's watch from Zeppelin is back down to $99.00, a price that it was offered at a good number of months ago. Recently it has been priced at about twice that.

NOTE: The small picture is weird. Sometimes it prices the watch at $99, other times at $199. But click on it, and the web price is indeed $99 (until, that is, Amazon's algorithm decides to intervene).
