Hi,

I am looking to buy a Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Chronograph, but wondering where would be the cheapest or cheaper place to buy one?
I am from the UK and was wondering if there was a cheaper option here, as I know you can, not barter but a lot of dealers give a % off if you buy it then and there. and who much will they go down to?
And if I go to another country, which country would be cheapest/less tax to pay?
Thanks,

    15% should be easily doable in a UK authorised dealer. Market cross jewellers used to hand out 15% discount cards just for walking in the door. I got a fantastic deal on mine from Beaverbrooks a few years ago. There was an online discount code for 25% off that also worked with 2 yrs 0% credit. So I got what was at the time a £2180 seamaster chronograph (now £3800, ouch), for just £1635, which i then got 2 yrs 0% credit on.
    I wouldn't touch the 'grey market' if i were you, potential warranty problems and the savings aren't that great anyway, better off haggling with a UK dealer

  • Nice on Brighty,
    Who did you buy yours with in the end?
    I was also looking at Dubai, as I have a friend who lives there to see if they can get it any cheaper or TAX free as they come back to the UK a few times a year?

    Thanks,

    Never actually seen an Omega watch on sale before in the UK.

    How does one get things from Dubai if they don't know anyone living out there?

    Can they be posted to the UK tax free?

    Try putting Omega into Google.
