I have been told AD's do not get prior warning and are told the morning the increase comes into effect.


They get notice of price increases. They need time to reprice stock

Guess we will all know soon enough. No one really knows, it's all guess work.
I like Paul Thorpes videos, but I would take his latest "tip off" with a pinch of salt!

I have my steel Daytona coming soon , I expect it will magically appear as soon as the price increase has happened.
The same thing happened last year when I was waiting for my gold GMT

Who the hell is Paul Thorpe? And you must be daft if you think Rolex will leak price increase details to a YouTuber?

I like Paul but I don't think he has much insider info

Rolex prices don't seem to have risen but Omega prices are up by 5% today.

Paul is a decent guy.

Also he didn't say Rolex leaked anything.

In fact, he's often said Rolex has less leaks than most intelligence agencies.

He’s a well experienced watch dealer with a lot of contacts/connections.
Quite frankly I find his videos rather annoying as he repeats himself half a dozen times.

If you think Paul repeats himself, you should listen to Archie Luxury

I actually find Paul pretty easy to listen to and I find him pretty much to the point. It’s also good that I can listen to his videos with my my family around as the “F” bomb isn’t dropped every second word

I can't comment on whether Paul is a decent guy or not, but his son most definitely isn't having been found to sold fake rolex watches for £650,000 and is nowfacing bankruptcy.

I have it on good authority that Rolex will reduce prices by 20% across the whole range from November .
