Deals Around the Net: Open Thread

@BenR - Why not just place two separate orders? If the coupon is limited to one time use per account, just create another BR account using a different e-mail address.

[LesserBlackDog]

Hmm... well, I guess that could work. I'm still on my Lenten retail hiatus so I'm not pulling the trigger on anything anytime soon, though. $300 for a BR suit is a pretty sweet deal, though, especially for those of us with wonky proportions who really need suit separates. I bought my last BR suit with a 40% discount and it's my go-to.

@BenR glad to hear that I am not alone in my hiatus! "No purchase lent" is already killing me!

I bought that same watch tool kit in Dec from Amazon for $5+. The quality of the tools is shitty but what else can you expect for $5. However, it's been useful for removing watch bands and sizing metal bands.

[LesserBlackDog]

You can buy the same kit from Amazon for $8. I own it (used it to bump myself over the free shipping threshold once) and unfortunately it's a case of "you get what you pay for." The tools themselves are all pretty cheap and junky, some to the point that they cannot even be used for their intended purpose (like the springbar tool, which is completely useless).


If you really want to build a watch tool kit, I'd recommending doing it one piece at a time with high quality tools.

[jicarv]

@BenR - Have you used a springbar tool that you would recommend?

[LesserBlackDog]

@ Juan - I just use a flathead jeweler's screwdriver. Works just as well as a springbar tool, IMO. If you want a specific springbar tool, the ones at InternationalWatchman.com are probably as good as any.

Heads up, the lovely yet overpriced J. Crew x Timex Andros watch is on sale at $145 from $175. Still a lot for a Timex but keep an eye out because it drops to $101.50 if they have another 30% sale! (last one was 2 weeks ago or last week?)

I can't see a reason to consider that Timex (even at $101.50) when an Orient Mako is available for the same price. I do like slapping a NATO strap on a diver, though.

Bonobos: Use the code 'buzzerbeater' to get the Game Day Chinos for $58! Deal runs through Sunday at 11:59 p.m. EST.

Bonobos is back on Fab.com, this time it's $130 for a $185 credit for wool pants and $75 for a $108 credit for corduroys (the description specifically mentions the product categories, so doesn't look like it's good for anything on the site).

Does anyone have a good discount code for Levis (in store or website)?


One of those 40% types would be very timely.


Thanks
