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.
