I'd be careful, some of their list prices are way over MSRP prices (above the 20% discount), even on Seiko's own USA site.
Remember these are listed in CAD, not freedom dollars.
Ahhhh, my bad.
And I hate it when folks assume the world only exists within US borders.

While we have all been marveling at the deals on the Citizen closeout site, there's this:

This Alpina GMT on a nylon strap is $209.99 at Amazon. ($249.99 less $10 coupon at Jomashop.)

Here's another case where a site other than the Citizen site is offering a better deal on an Alpina (again nylon strap vs. PVD bracelet):

Laco is 20 percent off too, at TimebyMe. They are legit. I bought my Lip Dark Master from them this fall, a smooth transaction.

I've eyeballed Laco often but have never seen them on sale before. For instance, here's the 39mm marine-inspired Valencia, sapphire, Miyota M821, fully lumed dial, from 370 for 296 euro with free shipping.

I had posted last week about Aragon having a Buy One Get One Free sale with its divemasters for $155. The BOGO has been extended to include the Skyguardian Chronographs and the women's StarHalo quartz fashion watches.

Edit, this appears to be a used model. Not a deal. Thanks [mention]audio.bill[/mention] for the catch.

I don’t follow MG as a brand but looking for another blue diver, I have tracked the Promare somewhat closely. It’s often available just under $2,000 so $1,700 from Luxury Love is a decent price with a 10% discount.

I was unfamiliar with Luxury Love, but looking at their site they sell preowned merchandise. Note that this MG has a rated condition of Very Good, which is below their ratings of Great, Excellent, or Pristine, while being above Fair or Good.

Sportique.com has lowered the price on this Mondaine Swiss Railway watch. Unfortunately its not the stop2go version with the cool movement or the automatic. Fortunately its still a steal at $137.50 and retains the sweet backlit hands. Retail is $265 and its at least $40-50 cheaper than I can find anywhere else.

FYI- I just purchased one of these and after paying it shows only 4 are remaining.
I may have gotten the last one.

Now to source the mesh bracelet...
I had one in my cart and just pulled the trigger so that may actually be the last one.

I've just bought one today, so there are more in stock (or it's a scam). Using a forwarding shipper for the first time as well, so fingers crossed it all works out.

Been meaning to post about this but kept forgetting. I have been looking for a <40mm solar-powered watch (many of the Japanese offerings seem rather big). I came across this range of JDM ones from Citizen:

Not "deal" I guess but they work out to be around $30 cheaper than Chino Watch. Not bad for titanium?

On a related note, Centric Instrument also offers <40mm solar-powered models, and they are now on sale (thanks, [mention]The Time Bum[/mention]!) 25% off + 15% off with HOLIDAY15
