Heads Up! I Saw A Bargain Here! 2019

Up to $300 back in ToM credit on purchases made on the app.

Wonder if it is an attempt to bypass ebates cash back?
Or does ebates work through an in app purchase?

From my recollection, the ToM credit usually ranges in the 10-20% range depending on the item.

Seiko srpc59 comes to 125 with the coupon which seems like a good price .

I was actually looking at that exact watch earlier, but I think AreaTrend is pulling some BS with it.

The price you see for $138.99 is actually AFTER the coupon. If you put it in your cart it's $150 or so. Then you apply the coupon and it's down to $138. Unless AreaTrend likes you better than me, I've tried adding it to my cart, clearing my cache, etc several different ways last night and can't get a lower price. After seeing that, I gave up since it's the same price @ Joma.

Edit - Tried again today. And now it appears that it's working as it's meant to. Good deal!

If anyone is interested in picking up a Mondaine Stop2Go, Massdrop has both the limited edition Gottardo 2016 models for $190. Which is around the lowest price it has gone down to at other sites.

Kind of surprised there are still any stock left.

Could be a good deal depending on the cash back credit you get from purchasing through the ToM app. Still too pricey for my tastes, but am tempted.

Touch of Modern has a number of German microbrand Lilienthal Berlin watches on sale. Including their zeitgeist auto.

https://www.touchofmodern.com/sales/lilienthal-berlin

The grey/silver dial is regularly $599, on sale for $420

The black/slate dial version runs $649, or on sale for $450

I never jumped on the Gottardo train (heh get it) because I already have a Stop2Go in the classic colors. I was sorely tempted by this. Unfortunately, it looks like MD is getting a lot of the duds. If you read through the comments from the last drop, a lot of people received defective watches. I've never worked through MD's warranty or returns before, so I'm hesitant to pull the trigger now. Plus, MD charges me a lot of tax, whereas most other retailers do not. Has anyone bought a Gottardo from MD the last time around? Did it arrive fine? Or has anyone worked with MD regarding a defective item? I'm scarred after the fiasco I had with Ashford.

Couple of nice deals available at Overstock for their President's Day sale if you dig around a bit:


Victorinox 249085 Field Watch(43 mm) is available for $89. Next cheapest is Amazon or eBay at $106 or so.

Or the 249088 (39 mm version) is also $89.

https://www.overstock.com/Jewelry-Watch ... oduct.html

Overstock is AD for Victorinox, so those watches come with 3 year manufacturer warranty, upping their value somewhat as well.


Grovana Quartz Moonphase watches are available in a few different colorways for about $158 (next cheapest almost $30 more at Amazon and eBay):

Other dial & case colors are available, some even for cheaper. The above are just examples.

From my recollection, the ToM credit usually ranges in the 10-20% range depending on the item.

Cash back has only been 5% the last several months.

This promo is $30 back for every $150 up to $300 back on $1500.

This Ball is around $800 net.

Poshmark messed-up G-Shock for modders. Looks like model GLX-5600-A (Casio page here) with module 3151. Bezel and strap look pretty messed up. Hopefully the crystal is okay. Very Used, $25 + $7 S&H. Maybe the seller would take an offer?

Noticed a few Kickstarter campaigns that launched today or late last night.
I'll post the more interesting ones.

First off is the Straton Legera chrono that can be available with either meca-quartz or auto movement.

This is the other one that I felt was worth highlighting.
Only reason I'm posting this one is that they are offering an elebore ETA 2824-2 powered watch for less than $600

Just browsing the usual Glycine eBay plugs and found this:

Glycine KMU 48 Automatic Small Seconds for $284.

It's a pretty big watch at 48 mm (hence "KMU 48"). However, like I always argue.. Flieger watches are meant to be big!

With an ETA small seconds movement, Glycine pedigree, manufacturer warranty from AD (glycine direct themselves), this is a really ridiculous deal. It's one the cheapest automatic glycine's I've found yet. Sure you can grab an Incursore model for less, but this represents a much greater discount compared to both MSRP and typical sale prices.

Good catch! Idk how I missed that I'm usually way better at cross-shopping for better prices. Really great price for a swiss moonphase (despite the quartz)! Thank you!

Quartz is a selling point to me for a moonphase, but the moon is too small for what I'm looking for.
