Bad news for us in europe
Don't know if you guys follow the stockmarket but if you do you Will know that the CHF just increased a whooping 15% versus the euro.
The reason is simple the Swiss national bank made a major decission ( Google it) We all know our AD pay in CHF when they import watches... So we also know listprice will go up 15%....... for EVERY brand

This after the prices already going up 30%+ over the last 5 years unrelated to currency. Super.

Thanks for the info Unknown. I'm sure WE will all find a way to avoid that mark-up.

Looks like I made the right decision going into Japanese buying mode after all. Let's see... I'll have my SBDX012 within the month, what else can I get cheap?

BUT the US Dollar has had a steady increase relative to the Euro.. So in theory a price increase in the USA is not justified.
