Best place to buy in the Philly area?

I'm looking to pick up a new watch in the near future and am wondering where you guys would go for the best deal? I was thinking about going to Govbergs in Philly or Bailey, Banks, & Biddle in KOP. Are either of those willing to haggle a bit? Any better local choices since i'm not sure what watch I want to add to my collection?

I like Govberg - they fixed a bent springbar for me right there in the store, and offered me 40% off the watches I looked at that day (GO and Ulysse Nardin).

Bailey, Banks & Biddle by me have 40% everything right now, including watches.

Any time! You know, if they're offering 40% off without my even asking, they might come down more. Also, if you shop at Govberg and can have the watch mailed to NJ or DE you can probably avoid the sales tax.

I have a great AD in Princeton, NJ. BBB will have things like Omega/TAG, etc so depends on what you're looking for.

My AD carries Rolex/Panerai and some other brands if you are interested in those.

PM me if you want more info.

I've purchased 4 watches from Govbergs..they were able to beat every AD in the tri-state area on pricing and they have great service.

Should have asked earlier but what brand of watch are you looking to buy?

Honestly don't have anything in mind at the moment. If I can get a good deal on a specific Graham i've been looking for I may pick that up, if not, whatever I see that I like.
