that's about US$7400 which is the best I've seen so far.
Grey sets in Singapore are going for about US$7900.

crown1081 · 27 February 2015, 04:22 AM

I bought in February for full monty $8,950 but no sales tax since I had it shipped out of state. This was in Chicagoland. This was hard to find and all the ADs I called say they could sell it for full price. In my heart of hearts, I hate paying full retail.

Polynwa · 27 February 2015, 04:35 AM

8750$ in Aruba, Duty Free but no discount. I'm yet to find it here.

Pinol · 27 February 2015, 04:41 AM

$9,900 dlls here in Mexico. Waiting time: 3 months.

gpraba · 27 February 2015, 04:48 AM

For any one in UK Jersey is the best place to get one, 5k after 5% tax refund

SeaDweller1220 · 27 February 2015, 04:51 AM

$8950.
Bought mine in June last year (first one they got) full MSRP but no TAX in Delaware.
1 year 0% interest if paid off in full within 365 days.

fdm79 · 27 February 2015, 05:18 AM

Today's MSRP in Brazil, R$ 33.590,00 = US$ 11670,00 / €10.418,00

However, you can have up to 7% discount on the BLNR and 10% on Hulk. Here, they are virtually the same price...

Worst place on Earth to buy manufactured goods...

PS - Check Apple stuff for example...

Sal_UKSheffield · 27 February 2015, 06:28 AM

Lol uk tax 20% and rising

crown1081 · 27 February 2015, 06:36 AM

Any of you guys hear of a possible Rolex price increase due to the swiss franc?

Any idea of how much?

fdm79 · 27 February 2015, 07:18 AM

Around 10% over today's MSRP.

Not true at all.

Really interesting thread. Keep them coming

RazorD · 27 February 2015, 07:56 AM

At AD yesterday and they said they would "let me buy it for MSRP of $8995" and not charge a mark-up :)

How nice of them to "let you" pay full retail!

Maybe it's a seller cheap chat or maybe I understood worldwide when it could be local....

Sales tactic. Look at the myriad of posts by Ken, and others, about this.

ADs have no idea when or what the increase will/when be. They are sent a new price list a couple days before.

If Rolex were to do a price adjustment, it would probably be limited geographically to account for currency fluctuation. I would be shocked if they just did a blanket 10% worldwide.

fdm79 · 27 February 2015, 08:11 AM

My doubt was about being worldwide or not...
It will happen here for sure. They said it will happen after Monday.

All Rolex prices in Brazil are based in US Dollars/Swiss Francs and the price is really increasing...

Wow!
And I thought here was the worst

11.7K usd is insane!
Here in Korea the BLNR retail is 9.6K usd. (no increase yet)

DocHorton · 27 February 2015, 10:07 AM

Bought mine last week off of WUS for $7475 shipped with box, manual, and warranty card. It was shipped from Turkey to DFW.

Montanaro · 27 February 2015, 02:22 PM

$9005 lol

crown1081 · 27 February 2015, 03:07 PM

None of the ADs I spoke to in the Chicagoland area would discount the BLNR. There are people who would buy them for full pop. It's still in high demand.

707soldier · 27 February 2015, 03:13 PM

TRF trusted seller is the way to go, for the best price.

rollee1 · 27 February 2015, 03:33 PM

Increase is worldwide, its happening next month systematically throughout the first 2 weeks. Rates ranges from 5%-10% initially with possibility of second increase to follow shortly after. One of the reasons, is the adjustment to currency variations and the appreciation of the Swiss Franc. Rolex wants their line to be within 5% worldwide, eliminating cross country variance.

dericlam · 27 February 2015, 03:47 PM

Retail of BLNR as at today in Malaysia is RM28,630.00 equivalent to around USD8,065. All ADs are out of stock and there is no longer a wait list. ADs and grey (both joining forces) are selling 15% above retail and still sold out due to overwhelming demand.

king1412 · 27 February 2015, 05:37 PM

Ordered mine last month for AUD$9500 (about US$7400 after exchange rate). I paid in full and was told the watch will arrive in 6 weeks but now the AD is asking for an extra AUD$900 since there is a price rise in Australia on March 1. Can the AD do that? Is that legal? I've fully paid for the watch and just waiting for its arrival. I will be calling the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission to see if the AD is within their rights to increase the price of a product that has already been ordered and fully paid for.

theflywrist · 27 February 2015, 09:05 PM

$8480 from the AD where I live.
I'm surprised that it is the cheapest that I have come across. Considering I live in a very expensive country.
