Price versus a deal...
In Response To: Re: Quartz vs Automatic ()

: Seamaster JB Quartz=$950 automatic=$1100
: Is this a good deal??

Those are good *prices* -- but the quality of the *deal* depends on more than just the price. If the dealer is crappy and won't help you if there is a problem, of if the watch is used, a return, altered or never arrives, then you still may be getting a very bad deal!

You are spending a thousand dollars or so--that is still a SERIOUS amount of money to most people. So now that you have chosen your watch to buy, spend a decent amount of time choosing who to buy it from.

Making a mistake in choosing a dealer to buy from can be MUCH WORSE than a mistake in choosing which watch to buy!
