Quick one for Vet My Deal. I’m buying a Bulgari Serpenti Tubogas two-tone double spiral (ref 102236, non-diamond) for my wife. A dealer called Swiss Watches Inc, Yuri Lyubarsky, is offering it at $11,000, tax free, factory-direct with full manufacturer warranty, box and papers, registered to me as first owner. Terms are bank wire only, non-returnable, 6 to 8 week delivery.
I want your read on two things. Is $11K a fair number for this reference, and how much does the wire-only, non-returnable setup worry you given I haven’t confirmed the fit on my wife’s wrist yet? Retail is $12,900 and I’m seeing grey-market new around $11K to $12K. Tell me if I’m missing anything before I move.
