My aging eyes struggle to even read the Starwheel at times. If I ever grab a PC, it will be a similar style to this one. Ulysse Nardin made some good ones too, and Glashutte.
I would have to check exactly when. But the dealer I work with, I have a 20 year relationship. Maybe they don't discount for everyone, but I get everything at discount, except boutique purchases.
I mentioned in another thread, I had a quality issue that was not addressed, so I sold the watch and certainly will never again buy a new GP. An older one? Yes, I think I would. I need to recall the name of the one I am most interested in. Like Thomas, when I find a watch I know I want and will keep
I hope you are enjoying your AP ownership experience so far! No, they are not perfect, but they absolutely stand behind their products and always correct any issues. I don't expect you will have any, but rest assured they take care of everything on the rare occasion something pops up.
