Noob after a Sub Date

[cjp2k]

Hi guys, just found the forum I have been thinking of a Sub Date for a while, just found out about the price increase and am slightly gutted I held off.

Just a quick question, does anyone know of a AD in the North of England Newcastle, Manchester, Leeds etc with a Black Sub Date in stock at the old price??

Probably not but worth a go

Cheers

Im not from up north but if i were you i'd call around the AD's in your area and see if there willing to sell at the old price, when i past my AD yesterday there prices were still the old one's.

Cheers and welcome to the forum Chris.

Hi thanks for the reply, I have phoned 2 so far and they say tehy have non in group stock and therefor cant do it at the old price.

Unfortunatley they are all part of the same group.

Will keep trying!!

Cheers

If you are willing to come down to London you might stand a better chance of picking one up - make sure you call first of course. The cost of petrol or train fare would still be cheaper than the price rise.

I see you are in the NE - would Glasgow or Edinburgh be a possibility ?

Good luck - go for it. Its a great watch. If you can't get one for the old price still get it anyway. I know its galling to pay more, but long term you will never regret it.

Hi Mate, both London and Edinburgh are about 2.5 - 3 hours on the train so not much difference. Once I get out of the office, I am gonna ring around Manchester Dealers, my girlfriend is cabin crew out of manchester airport so could get her to pick one up for me lol!

Excellent - let us know how you get on

I think David Robinson in St Anns Square Manchester had one - they are also pretty nice to deal with compared to WoS & M & W round the corner

Thanks for the help guys, I found one. Going to fill the car up with diesel and set off early in the morning for a couple of hours drive

So hopefully tomorrow I will be a Sub Date owner

Its £400 over here so with the current exchange rate about $720ish, so worth an hour or so in a car in my book!

In that case, it's a legitimate concern. I did not realize you are in the UK
