It depends. There're plenty of house brand till the end. Popular brands like Brioni, Kiton, C&J don't last long.

I just go when I can get there. I will be in Manhattan next week. Planning to check out Barney's. Are there any other good sales going on?

I will miss Tourneau's by one day.

I have done some checking through SF and TZ for good locations in Manhattan for watches. I am looking at new and vintage. This is what I have so far:

Tourneau (avoid)
Aaron Faber (avoid)
Joseph Edwards
Wempe
Deco
Cellini
Kenjo
Louis Martin

Any further recommendations when looking for vintage watches?

I picked up two ties there today. Selection of shirts seemed pretty poor (almost entirely the same white and light blue). Didn't bother looking at the suits (nothing there that would fit me) so can't comment there. Shoes didn't seem to have much, although they had several pairs of those Green leather and Brown Suede boots that showed up on here little while ago.

Hope this helps.

I thought the shirt selection was poor as well, so were shoes and not many sweaters etc. I think they offer a nice selection on suits/SCs but that's about it.

FYI, I saw several Kiton ties at Loehmann's for under $50. Not where they put out their usual selection of ties but across from the men's cash counter. Also some Kiton suits but only in larger sizes (48).

Popped into barneys yesterday. Discounts/stock dont seem to be what they were in the past.

There were some nice spring/summer weight incotex but mens slacks had no additional discount. Was also a bit wary of purchasing final sale incotex that I couldnt try on without dropping trou in an aisle. I think they were upwards of $150.

There were also some Kiton, Brioni, and Drake's shirts that were also north of $200 with no additional discount.

Ties were an additional 40% off - the usual lay-out: you have to wade through to find the nicer Kiton, Brioni, Drakes stuff. Although I must say I thought some of the nicer patterns/fabrics that i saw were from the barneys house label. I picked up a nice yellow kiton 7-fold for about $65.

Scarf boxes were a bit of a mess but there were a few Drakes scarves (100% cashmere made in London) in Miami Hurricane colors with a bit of yellow thrown in. They were about $75, I think.

Not much in shoes and overcoats and there seemed to be the same old sportscoats and suits.

I'm not sure what is going on with the discounts for the final weekend - I thought it was strange that mens shirts and pants had no additional discounts this late in the sale.

Suits finally got marked down today. Shoes was a wasteland of converse and assorted house brands. Like philovance said, leftover SC from last year, didn't even bother with suits.

I saw a pair of US size 13 (I forget the UK size) Edward Green Piccadilly loafers in brown (most closely resembled in these) at, of all places, Century 21 in Fidi. They are a little creased, most likely from being tried on, but not too badly and the soles weren't too worn. The tag on the box indicated they came from Barney's. They're priced at $340.

They had a bunch of other Barney's reject shoes, mostly some ugly John Varvatos and their Coop line. They did have one pair of C&J spectators in dark blue and white, but I forget their size.
