Just tried one on today and it's over £3k and more expensive than the black.

Great watch but now makes the black bay an even better bet

I think that is just some stores taking advantage
it will soon level out, give it 3/4 months

id rather by a dj2 for £4k - yes its a totally diff watch but I would

It's not really a price rise, the new Pelagos has a new COSC in-house movement, compared to the older ETA one.

watchwatcher · 23 September 2015, 10:19 AM

Did you think it was going to be the same price as the older version?

sutats · 23 September 2015, 11:02 AM

He actually might mean that it's actually more expensive than its black in-house counterpart. Just like how at certain ADs and watch dealers the black dial stainless steel Daytona is marked up slightly more than its white counterpart.

If the price is more than the £3020 price tag pictured then we'll certainly know for sure.

Not sure about in the UK...in the states the retail is about 4400, which I believe is about 3k in pounds?

The Ernest Jones website says both colours are £3020.

The new model price is as above £3020 regardless of colour variant.

Sound like you were comparing the new blue version Vs the older black

iancs · 23 September 2015, 06:08 PM

Picked one up Saturday in blue from Frazer Hart. The price was £3020.

Malbolge · 23 September 2015, 07:06 PM

Ugh why they picked Yellow for North Flag! :( What was wrong with white or red or green or blue... Yellow is like the only color I dont want on my watch. Sorry for the OT, but that comparison pic makes me really want the North Flag and due to color I really dont want it.

That's what I take from OP's post.

terrywoods · 25 September 2015, 06:24 AM

I just can not see £3020 being value for money, and 2nd hand 16800 sub date is not much more.
