Believe it when i see it.

What if every single Rolex AD in the world decided that they will all raise the price for 5% all together at the same time, without Rolex HQ agreement?

Have you thought about that? huh?

:p

You pulling our leg???

Could very well be true, I heard a rumour they have electricity now in Kent and everything...

I love the way Rolex always tell 1 random AD and a couple of street vendors :-)

Good news is though, I asked my pet cat when I for home from work if it was true and he meowed . . . . . . . TWICE!! I'm taking that as a no!

I was at bhindi jewelers in glendale, ca over the weekend and they did mention a price increase sometime in march for what it's worth.

captkevin · 30 January 2014, 07:20 AM

I have never been in AD where the sales person didn't say there was price increase coming. According Mayors there was going to be about 4 increases last year.

Every time I go to Mayor's first thing they tell me is buy now a price increase is coming in days

So you must of only gone there about 4 times last year!

Firstly, we all know that Rolex don't tell anyone anything. Secondly, we know AD's use this as a sales tactic, and who can blame them. Thirdly, who cares about 5%.

Agree. Wise man. Thumbs up
Only Rolex decides based on sales and left over stock numbers

Over stock doesn't exist in the Rolex economy, besides the super exotic sugar / PT models. Almost all the rest is moved into grey, in any given country it works that way due to the ambitious sales targets given by Geneva headquarters.

Car business works that way as well. Interesting

I love price increase rumors! This is how I manage to convince my wife that I really need to buy a brand new Sub before the coming price increase. Hehehe it worked! This is even after i just bought me a custom 1911 that cost me 5k. another way to justify another Rolex purchase asap. Lol

What kind of 1911? A buddy of mine just got a really nice one (not 5k though) and I can't wait to try it out and see if that'll be my next purchase!

up2nogood · 30 January 2014, 01:12 PM

Most outside the US won't know what they're talking about. Still, it's against the rules so better put a lid on it.

R3mmzy · 30 January 2014, 01:25 PM

I was actually told that effective Feb 1, 2014 AD's have had their margins reduced by a few % to reduce discounts on the timepieces, but that there is no price increases scheduled for q1 or q2 2014.

Nidal · 30 January 2014, 01:42 PM

with my humble experience, my AD knew about it a few weeks before it happened and were right on the sopt. That is not a big secret like the BAselworld

I have all the Rolex pieces I want for the foreseeable future. Bring on the price hike!

Haha - never say never huh!?

If I buy another it will def be on a one in one out basis!!!

Cheers

applebook · 14 February 2014, 05:28 AM

Interesting that most of the cars that I looked at 10 years ago are around the same prices now with their current models.

At this rate, will a steel Sub-C cost more than a 3-Series in 20 years?

bondtoys · 14 February 2014, 07:45 AM

Yes, that green thing has to go!

Rolexiva · 16 February 2014, 09:17 PM

Rolex met their 2013 quota early and therefore will increase their prices in the first half of 2014. Whether before or after Basel is the question. This was the "thinking" passed to me from the unknowing!!!

I would buy that statement my friend. Since increases have been at the first of the month , I'd say more likely after baselworld
