: best deal around in my area.

The authorized retailer I use is a very high volume Omega retailer, so they will offer 33% off to people I refer to them. I know of two other authorized retailers who will offer 30% off, and they are high volume retailers as well. The "mall jewelers" like Bailey Banks & Biddle seldom go above 20% unless they are clearing out old stock.
