Not sure if a bargain, but you don't often see a straightforward online 15% off a brand new release Oris.

Use code WS15 if you want to nab the new Oris sixty five 60th anniversary for £1657.

Notably the code also works across a number of brands at First Class Watches, including Damasko etc.

First off, eBay have a 15% off offer at some sellers right now, where the maximum discount is a rather generous £300. That might tip you over on watchlist items ...

I'm not sure if it's intentional, but Ernest Jones have an offer running on their outlet store that, at the time of posting, stacks with the £300 maximum discount. That means there are some tasty Bremont, Montblanc, Breitling, Longines, Tag Heuer and other deals on offer for anyone interested. Remember don't buy the deal, buy the watch!

Not a bargain per se, but H Moser have (I think) three watch prices available as prizes for completion of their “Scavenger Hunt” on Instagram. Takes answering a few clues and signing up to their email spam. 2 of the 5 clues available now, others released later.

I’m done with the first but stuck on the second. Not just posting this for help, but if anyone did want to pool intelligence I wouldn’t be unhappy!
I post a few watch pictures now and then to a little Instagram account - 16 followers and counting!

@jtc
Thanks for the Ernest Jones outlet link. Not a watch, but I bought a ring for my wife which just arrived.

There was also an extra 15% discount from EJ, as well as the eBay 15% off, so it took off just under 28% extra, on already hefty discount.

Hard to photograph a ring. A still photo doesn't capture the sparkle - much like aventurine watch dials.

Pragnells seem to have relinquished their Longines and Omega AD status. You would need to make your own enquiries but there are some of

both brands in their "Pre-Owned" that may not be very pre-owned.

TB Mitchell who sold off their omega watches recently had also lost their omega AD status.

40% off a Bremont Alt1-C at D.C. Leake. They also have some of the less obvious brands.
