Considering purchasing a B50 and wondering what a fair price from an AD would be. Looking at the silver titanium with Pro 3 Bracelet. I have seen them online for around $4800.00 USD and wondering how close an AD would come to this. I guess what I am asking is, what is the street price for this piece right now?

About 25-30 % of MSRP is what you should aim for at AD

I had some difficulty to convince my AD, but at the end I had a 26% discount

Unless you already have a relationship with your AD, do not expect more than 18%-20% off.

My advice, buy used or minty from a repentant buyer.

I have been keeping an eye for a blue dialed one with Pro 3 bracelet.

It wouldn't be a problem to add the bracelet. If you're interested, I can send you some contacts to work with there to see what adding that would cost.

The retail on the bracelet is around $1K so keep in mind that your $3995 watch may become a $4995 watch. At that point, it will be more economically feasible to find a B50 that already has the Pro 3 bracelet as part of the package.

Interesting that Govberg is selling an used B50 Night Mission for $5900 or $2000 more. I am not sure that the DLC treated case and Pro 3 diver strap with deployant would add that much to the price of the watch. But good to know I could sell mine for close to $6K if I wanted to.....

Everything is worth what someone is willing to pay. Anywhere close to street price for new would push me to new for a few more bucks.
