Rolex Price Increase Rumor?

If Rolex does have a price increase, what do you think the percentage will be?!

6% allows them some room to raise prices again before the Holidays...

"Nothing comes down but the rain" my guess would be 5-10% dependant on model as opposed to a blanket rise, bummer when they rise but on the other side that warm feeling that the one on your wrist would have cost so much more. who can deny that somewhat smug feeling just after a pricehike! cake and eat it springs to mind, oh if only!

If the price goes down 15% then I am going to have to take that extra percentage into my negotiating.

Went by my AD today...

Spoke with the store manager. They usually let me know about price increase atleast 2 weeks before. He said there's no increase coming in the very near future. So i'm pretty confident that we shouldn't be worried till about the time the new stuff from Basel actually starts making it to dealers. I would guess we are all safe till at least September.
