October has come and gone, and if you're anything like me, you spent Halloween inside eating an unhealthy amount of candy.
TheJohnP retains the crown, but both flypanam and The Sultan of SoWhat made really strong showings. On the other end, Stretch44 all but disappeared this month.
Casio is the brand champ this month, and we saw a great increase in deal posting participation. 20 more members posted at least one deal than did last month. Good work!
Average savings took a big 5.41% dip in October. Is this an anomaly or signs of a continuing trend? We'll see...
Ok, to the numbers!
(As always, if there is a particular brand, site or other pieces of data you'd like, let me know and I can provide it.)
Let's remember a few things first:
- I based these calculations on new and refurbished watches only.
- I do not include watch accessories or used watches.
- I only included deals with links.
- The retail price used was either the retail price listed on the selling website or found on the manufacturer's site.
- Currency, if not in USD was converted to USD using Google's currency exchange calculator on as close to the date the deal was posted as possible.
- "Largest" and "Smallest" deal is based solely on the percentage savings from listed retail. I do not make subjective determinations on the brand's perceived value. That is up to you, the reader.
