RFX.. Post that banana republic code when it comes up.. and whats a good watch thats 3k to 6k.. diamonds are fine but not too many!
Once it arrives, I'll post it but I am not 100% sure if they will have an online code. It might be in-store only like last year. I'll keep you guysupdated though.
As for watches, I need more information on what you are looking for. You can get a lot of watch in that price range, you might even be able to get two decentones. A stainless steel IWC Portuguese Chrono could be had for around $5k (more formal look) or Cartier Pasha Seatimer (casual sporty).

If you want two watches, you can probably get a good Tag Heuer Carrera or Aquagraph, Breitling Seawolf and/or Omega Seamaster as most of those go for $2k-$3keach after discount.
This is a good combo of one sporty/casual and one formal/casual. Both should cost about $5k-$6k, maybe less depending on how good you are with haggling.

I've heard of the show but never really got to watching it.
Now I'm going to have to check it out, if I ever find the time.

The HAPPY30 code was a one day sale and expired but a 40% off should be coming soon from what I heard.
As for the watch, are you purchasing it brand new? If he is an Authorized Dealer, I would say that is a pretty good deal. However, if it is used and/or the person is a private party or "grey market," then you might be able to haggle it down a little bit but it's hard to say without knowing the condition and such.
Rolex watches are the only watches that actually go up in price, IWC is probably going to be in the same league in the future. Roles prices goes up every February and due to the prestige of the name Rolex, the used ones increase and price too. It is the only non-limited watch brand I know that sells for more than what people pay for used. Like my friend/co-worker purchased a Rolex (I think a Datejust as well with a fluted bezel) for around $3k-$4k about 6-8 years ago. The watch/brand has increased in price about 1%-3% per year for the past 6-8 years and cost $6500 now. So now if he wants to sell that watch, he would actually break even or make a profit and sell it for around $4k-$5k.

It's so simple and classic though for sure. Now that I think about it I'd put it at about 48 years old at least. I can't remember if he got it when he got married or if he got it during/right after WW2 (he was a glider pilot). Watches aren't my thing at all and I only wore it on special/formal occasions so I was quite shocked when I found out.
Found out why the stock was a little dry at LV, They had a ready-to-wear show in the shop on Monday, so that could be why.
The nearest LV Store always sells out in my sizes so I know how you guys feel. I guess thats one of the down sides of living in CA.
And to those interested, I just saw a nice pic of a Breitling Headwind to those interested. Nice and simple.
