Any idea if Rolex takes a price increase this year? If so, any idea what it will be ? I assume historically they take a similar increase? I have a GMT2, going to jewelers mutual and have an appraisal with a current price but want to insure a value that would include a 2016 price increase if it looks like we will have one.

Thank you....!!!

No-one knows until it happens

locutus49 · 23 January 2016, 07:37 AM

Many threads on this speculation.

ltmgeller · 23 January 2016, 07:40 AM

Ask any salesman at an ad and they tell you it's going up so buy now. They work for ads so they must know.

thefork · 23 January 2016, 07:47 AM

What price increase did they take last year %wise?

Sportwatchmania · 23 January 2016, 08:33 AM

Seen the new German price list already

To give you an idea

Sub Date from 7300€ to 7750€
BLNR from 7700€ to 8100€
Daytona SS from 10350 to 10900 / Platona 64800 to 68050

gsgarbear2 · 23 January 2016, 08:43 AM

Only Rolex knows and they won't say till it happens.

When does this price increase take effect? Is the price increase affecting the rest of the Eurozone?

AK797 · 23 January 2016, 09:16 AM

We know Germany and Holland and probably most of the EU countries for 1st Feb. Not confirmed by any UK ADs yet tho.

WS9D · 23 January 2016, 03:34 PM

What model gmt2 u have? Assuming it's a 116710, even if they go up 5% this year, that's only a ~$425 difference. Id say just get the appraisal / insurance now and not worry about the increase. God forbid something we're to happen and u have no insurance, you'll be out much more than ~$425.

Mr. K · 23 January 2016, 04:49 PM

Lots of speculation these days, they used to have regular price increases every Feb.

I can't even remember the last time they had one it has been so long.

Andad · 23 January 2016, 05:03 PM

Based on where our RoE is going it won't be long.

I wonderful this is why some models are in short supply in Oz.

As far as i know it will take place 1ste Feb indeed. Also in the Netherlands from the 1ste Feb but there is not a new price list out in the open yet. Tax in the Netherlands is 2% higher as in Germany so do the math. What will happen in the rest of europe i don't know

Rolex addict · 23 January 2016, 08:57 PM

Yes, it happens on February 30th.

This is a good point. Just get the insurance now and if it really bothers you update it later

wouldn't be surprised...it's been a few years in the U.S. although the dollar is strong right now. The warranty went up to 5 yrs recently so maybe it will happen. No one knows for sure except the people in Switzerland working in the green buildings.

dubai2010 · 25 January 2016, 03:47 AM

Heard prices in south africa are going up by 10% in the next few days. you can pick up rolex there for a steal of a price now a days. unfortunately many models are already sold out for months ahead

strafer_kid · 25 January 2016, 04:20 AM

It will hardly stop us buying them?

Michaelx · 25 January 2016, 06:16 AM

Rolex will increase their prices in Germany by 1st of February. Average increase by 5%.
