GMT-Master II Oyster, Everose gold

Always loved the GMT-Master II in solid gold, I walk past the AD R. M Robinson in the UK, most days. They have had one in the window for the last three months at least, the windows are well stocked for the last six months.



I've never bought a watch from the group, what they are chances they will let me pay them the RRP 35,600 GBP for it?

Chances are high I would say! They will make you wait a few days, maybe a week and then you will get a call. They will tell it's not the one that was in the window but of course, it is the one that was in the window!

Its a great watch btw.

Go for it. You'll have it on your wrist in no time and they will be pleased to shift it as gold ain't moving.

Why would you walk past the window day after day and then ask a watch forum if an AD will sell you a watch?

Have a go. Nice watch, but honestly I never wear it. Too flashy for London.
Good luck!

Just ask them and ask for a discount because it clearly is not selling.
