I had a nice surprise at TIMECO today as Mark dropped by the store to see what was available...I showed him the Citizen Promaster Limited Edition 0326 / 1500 and a Hamilton Route 66 Limited Edition. The one caught his eye was the Hamilton Khaki Aviation QNE with the brand new ETA 2895-2 27 Jewel Automatic Movement. However,due to the price difference of $200 in retail between Canadian and the U.S. Dollar. It was still too high.

Vijay who is the other sales associate that I was working with. Had phoned head office to see what kind of price break I could give to Mark. The best that I could do was $ 815 taxes included. At full retail price this particular watch would be $980 with taxes included. The good news is that at least Mark has six days in Vancouver,so there is no rush to buy.:)

$815? I blew that price out of the water with a 30 second search online. If I wanted to go into biz doing this I could beat 95% of any retailers out there. :) But that is to much work. LOL :cool: ;)

The MSRP on the Hamilton Khaki Aviation QNE is $875 Canadian. It's hard to compete with internet prices from the U.S. However it's not the end of the world...I am confident that Mark would pay me a second visit to the store.

And what a pleasure to finally meet Simon. Great to put a face to a member and Simon was kind enough to show me some of the treasures in the store. I made another stop and visited a store with some very high end pieces... but they were throwing around 25% discounts! I spent the remainder of yesterday in the beautiful Stanley Park after having lunch at the Fish House. What a beautiful spot in a beautiful city! We'll start work today so I will be tied up all day until 5:00 but I have several more stops to make which hopefully will include a visit to Simon. Here's a shot of two WIS in Vancouver!:D Of course I have the Astronaut on and Simon has a beautiful Hammy Maestro on.
