Watch Time Magazine Sub sticker shock?

Got the June 2010 issue of Watch Time in the mail today, one thing seemed off, the price for the new Sub-C stated it was going to be $7,400.00 and $7,900.00 for the green dial Sub-C. Type-o or real MSRP?

I would guess that quite a large number of TRF members who asked about the price can easily afford it...

That quote should be updated for the Internet age...

Well, I sure as heck wouldn't trade my 5513 for one...Overpriced is the word that comes to mind.

The watch IMHO is ugly and over priced. Rolex last year got a taste of what all those price increases did for demand and AD's had to discount almost all models to sell.

At $ 7250 the crown should at least be vertical and the hour hand should line up exactly with the markers..like in the advertisements.
