good morning i hope you all are having a great weekend! i need some advice. i have saved almost enough cash(aka money my wife knows nothing about) and want to buy a doxa 1000t caribbean or a doxa 750t gmt caribbean. i would like to know where i could shop for one of these, outside of the doxawatches.com because i would like to pay less then full retail. is this even possible for a watch like this? any advice would be great and thank you all for your time!

Unless you can find one on a sales forum pre-owned only Doxa and retail AD's carry Doxa watcheshand6.gif ....returning Doxa customers get a nice discount over the site prices via e-mail upon release of new Doxas as well as what is in stock yourock.gif

Returning customers get a nice discount on all Doxa watches by simply ordering via phone or by contacting Doxa via online chat. The discount goes away at the end of March, though... If you're a new customer I'd look for a nice used one, paying close attention to the condition of the polished outer bezel, which is a bit of a scratch magnet. I've seen a few decent deals lately on Caribbeans on various watch forums. If you've never owned a Doxa Sub before you're in for a treat! They're great watches! hand6.gif

I would recommend calling Doxa first DOXA watches USA Houston, TX, USA 1 877 255 5017 source: http://www.doxawatches.com/retailers.htm or try Toppers http://www.topperjewelers.com/watches/doxa/ ;)

ok, here is the deal because i still need advice. doxa.com is at $2490 toppers is at $2241 but i lose the better pricing on my next doxa purchase. my question is how long is the doxa second purchase deal a deal? is it forever or just until march 2008? and that is a lot of cash at least to a guy like myself for a watch, so maybe i should wait. i take really good care of my watches so i hate to buy used and get the marked up bezel like i was warned about here. anymore thoughts or advice? one last thing if i was a returning buyer at doxa.com the watch would be around $1600 that is a huge savings. thoughts...

It ends March 08 for everyone! AD's are only allowed to discount Doxas up to 10% and Doxa is really strict about these prices. The best option is used but......used prices will also be going thru the roof once the returning discount goes away. If you must have new, there are no deals to be had, other than the 10%.

Remember, also, that if you purchase direct from DOXA, it is shipped FedEx...and FedEx will hound you to death for the custom's charges! I would also query DOXA if a purchase from any AD qualifies you as a returning customer or whether it must be a direct buy from DOXA.

A returning customer is someone who has made a DIRECT purchase from DOXA SA. This does not include purchases from other retail locations, third party dealers, forum members, etc. More importantly, the Returning Customer Discount is only available to Returning Customers who purchase DIRECTLY from DOXA. source: http://forums.watchuseek.com/showthread.php?t=122293 source: https://www.doxa.org/Order/order.aspx?ID=100

Correct. I have never had to pay any customs charges for my purchases from Doxa. I wouldn't be afraid to buy a used Doxa just because of the bezel "scratch magnet" issue. Just make sure to get good recent pix of the watch and ask point blank about condition. MOST WUS are very honest in my experience.

The bezel alone is one reason to get a Doxa in your collection. It is very unique and extremely functional in recreational diving and many people do a double take when they see it.

Well...they didn't prepay mine this past summer!
