I stopped into my AD a couple of days ago to pick up a current Rolex catalogue for Paul the VTC guy, and the manager gave me a heads-up that Rolex has a price increase scheduled for Canada some time this month, September.

I got the same feedback two days ago. The AD thought they might have some additional info re new prices by Friday.......

SUPERDOC · 2 September 2010, 09:40 PM

My AD says the same thing...but says that the rumor is that the NEW models would not be affected.

So the Sub-c should remain as is....I would hope. It's a short lived intro price if so...

I'll swing by Royal De Versaille if I can to grab a new price sheet.

jeremyam · 2 September 2010, 10:40 PM

prices are suppose to be raised, heard from royal and nash in toronto and london, respectively...

i too have been told that the new models would not be subject to the regular price increase- but they're selling at a premium anyways... ex: no discount on any of the new Ceramic models but know that prices are -20% for other models.

canada has got to be one of the most expensive places to buy a rolex- the states being one of the lowest...

watches are subject to sales tax, or harmonized tax (provincial/government) of 13%...

If these hikes do occur that's it i'm not buying any more rolexes. I'll keep my eyes out for other pieces i want to get.

Tax is BRUTAL. A 25% discount (which is rare enough as is) becomes 12 % - are you kidding me??

lol

It actually equates to a 15.25% discount since the tax is charged at the discounted price not on the full retail. and a 30 percent discount equtes to a 20.9 percent discount.

In Europe prices increased also on new models (SubC !)
