I'm really liking the Seiko SPB153J1, the "Captain Willard", but I also like a bargain. Is it realistic to think it might be possible to get a discount on one?
If so, what would be a realistic figure to aim for?
Many thanks,

Absolutely.
Discount codes are readily available for 15% to use online with the likes of Goldsmiths so this is a minimum. I ordered the blue limited edition spb183 Willard on release and managed to get a 20% discount plus free watch roll. Was available in store but I ordered online to get a further 3% via topcashback.
Goldsmiths are still doing the key worker/ front line discount which is worth a look [20%].
Thanks, I'll have a look at that now.
When i checked a couple of weeks ago the WATCH20 code was working on the SPB line at goldsmiths - it seems to come and go so might be worth a try

Also if you drop Jura watches a price match, last time I did they beat it and gave anther 5% off
Thanks everyone. I need to be more observant (not absorbent as I nearly wrote).
Thanks for all the tips, I went onto Goldsmiths and got a green Willard at 20% discount plus a buckshee watch roll & free next day delivery.
Goldsmiths being part of WoS, it'll be good for my purchase history too (I hope).
How did you get 20% off ?

Are Hilliers and Jura affiliated? There are similarities on pricing, discounts and site appearance.
It came today but no roll. I emailed them & the response said the freebies were reserved for those paying full price. I replied that the website confirmed that the roll was part of the order & that as a frequent customer of the WoS group I was disappointed not to have received it.Quote:

If not, it's not the end of the world, I'd rather have the money off than the freebie.

So what they are saying is, it’s not a free watch roll. If you buy their full price watch, the price also includes the cost of a watch roll that you may or may not want. I’d be willing to bet that 100% of people buying would rather have the cheaper watch and no roll!

Yep, my thoughts exactly. I could use the roll but I'd much prefer the 20% discount.Quote:

Assuming you got a discount on the £1000 advertised price then technically you do not qualify for a free watch roll. Advertising states a free watch roll with all purchases over £1000.
I got 20%, so £800. Technically you are correct but the website includes the roll when confirming the order.Quote:
