Tourneau's sample sales are one of the best kept secrets to getting a luxury watch at an affordable price from a major retailer. If you are in New York City on September 11th, I highly recommend you go. Please note that the sale is not located at the Tourneau store. This exclusive event will be held at Soiffer Haskin at 317 West 33rd Street, in New York City. The event runs from September 11th - 16th, but you really (really) want to get there on the first day. Why? Because this is a limited quantity sale, and the best stuff goes quick - trust me.

What brands will be there? Very hard to say. Tourneau pulls unsold inventory from area stores, and each store can have different brands. You won't be disappointed with the selection, and the prices are 50-70% off - if not more. So check it out, then come back and brag about the deal you got.

Has anyone ever done this?

I have never been to one of these sales but seems very tempting.

I took advantage of this sale earlier in the year in Atlanta, GA. I bought Tourneau's Gotham Avant-Garde Chrome with their extended service/maintenance plan. A new band for three years and at the end of the term they tune and polish. It was 70% off or I would not have bought it. I was out the door for $1800 or so. Tourneau is out of control with their pricing IMHO. This sale is the one day that a deal can be had at Tourneau.

Great to know! Thanks for sharing! do you know if they do this in Dallas?

Thanks.

^^ Have no idea but as bad as they suck I'd assume they do. Funny thing is the other day Wickedlysane and I are in there and the whole staff had changed. Moreover, for the first time EVER we were offered a 5% discount on a watch not on sale. Goofballs...

 

[wickedlysane]

^^ the sale when you got your watch was Tourneau's brand only, this sample sale is all brands and only in NYC.

The staff at our area Tourneau is a joke - they said the Pilot bracelet isn't being made for Breitlings any longer.

Wonder if they'd have any AP's 50% off!

Prob just wishful thinking!

If anyone is in San Francisco their Trunk sale starts Sept 24. My wifey works there, go see her and mention this Forum and ill make sure she hooks you up.

Ill have a list of the watches soon before they show up at the store.

 

[eryq13]

List would be awesome!

 

[TOI-MAT]

In for the list of watches!

 

[Max]

I'll be interested in hearing from anyone who goes to see if they have anything decent or if it's just going to be the lower end brands. I've never seen Tourneau and "good deal" mentioned together.

 

[TOI-MAT]

^ditto, or good service

 

[duc749r]

I would never buy a Tourneau watch. The wifey sent me a new vacheron constantin that I have my eye on. As soon as she gives me the list, ill post it.

I've actually had excellent service at Tourneau. I've bought a few pieces at their Time Machine NYC store and most of them from the DC area store. Nothing bad to say about them at all. I especially like their Extended Service Plan. It's saved me 3-4x the price I paid for the plan easily over the course of 2 years.

 

[Giannis]

But how? A ad told me their income is about 30-35 of the catalog prise.....in vacheron for example....

 

[misterkye]

my bonhead ass thought i booked flights for this weekend. needless to say, upon arrival at LAX i found out my flights aren't til the 24th. i missed the sale, was it any good? did anyone make it?

 

[duc749r]

I will have the trunk sale list of watches late this afternoon or early tomorrow. From what I hear prices range from 10-300k. Trunk sale starts this fri sept 24 at the sf store. I will also find out discounts I can get for L4P members through my wifey
