Rolex

I went to ernst and jones to buy a Rolex. I asked for a discount and got 5%, pushed and got 10%. Is this good? Has anyone been able to negotiate any more? Can they be pushed? I was surprised with the 10%.

    I got a tag watch for DH last week, managed to get 11.5% off! which was a fair amount, I pushed for a bit more but they said that was the bottom line. So maybe 10% is the standard max discount that watch shops are prepared to give

    though tbh you will get the rolex model you want cheaper online - just go with a registered seller

    I got 10% off my Rolex at Goldsmiths, seems pretty standard.
