Went to my local AD and he mentioned that Panerai is having a price increase on Monday, Oct 1st. I haven't seen a lot of chatter on the web....just one little blog entry somewhere. Has anyone heard of the price hike? Will it just affect certain models or it an an across the board increase?

KeWa · 1 October 2012, 12:06 AM

I read the same on Paneristi. I heard an increase of 0.6 % on another site, but this is not confirmed, and personally I don't think Officine Panerai would bother having an increase that "tiny"... Any of you have any insights - or heard any rumours?

Have a nice Sunday.

Porsche-ah · 1 October 2012, 12:26 AM

I heard the same as well. I expected it to be 5% or more.... 0.6% isn't too bad.

rolex170 · 1 October 2012, 01:00 AM

I'm going to a different AD today. I'll see if theyll give more info on the price increase. I'm sure theyll give details to try and close a sale for the month!

Keep us posted! Let us know what they say.

Abdon · 1 October 2012, 01:17 AM

I went by my local Panerai AD yesterday. As per the saleslady, only certain models will have a price increase. I don't know which ones, but i do know the 359 and the 048will remain at the same current price. The increase on most other models will be minimal, about 100-200 USD or thereabouts.
hope this helps!

news to me

kilyung · 1 October 2012, 02:36 AM

Good thing I'm happy with my 233! Don't really see getting another... well maybe ONE.

rolex170 · 1 October 2012, 06:57 AM

Just got back from a couple AD's and the price increase does take effect tomorrow. On average, there will be a price increase on certain models by an average of 6%. For example, the 104 will go up to $7400. The price of the 312 I was looking at will stay the same. And some models will go down in price, like the 321 (-$200). If you're looking to buy from an AD soon, then you've got a few more hours to run down to the store to save a few bucks! =)

Oyster Al · 1 October 2012, 08:46 AM

My AD in Chicago said same today. Tomorrow increase but didn't know how much.

Oyster Al · 2 October 2012, 08:23 AM

So did anything happen today?

nishant · 2 October 2012, 08:42 AM

I heard from a couple dealers about a price increase Oct 1.
Did factor in when going for my 305.

DiverAsia · 2 October 2012, 09:52 AM

I heard from my dealer that it was just Europe and it was a couple of hundred dollar increase. Anyone hear anything else?

nnp007 · 3 October 2012, 02:13 PM

just got back from Monte Carlo....from what the AD told me it was an Europe price increase as the US already got an increase in April...picked up an O series 111 from her on the 28th of Sept so I made the deadline!!!

rolex170 · 3 October 2012, 11:15 PM

This may have been a US and Euro price hike then. The two AD's I went to near DC confirmed the price increase and had the print out of the price list from Panerai.

Rarely we will some manufacturers lower their price, especially Panerai. Am I alright?

KeWa · 4 October 2012, 02:22 AM

100 euro increase for PAM305 (compared to April 2012 price) which equals app. 1.4 pct.

wimbo · 4 October 2013, 09:46 PM

This morning i went to my AD in Holland to collect my 351.
New price as from 1-10 is now 7k instead of 6,8k!
i got mine for the old price

kilyung · 5 October 2013, 01:18 AM

Oh oh. Can anyone else corroborate an increase?

WyoWatch · 5 October 2013, 03:40 AM

So I just got off the phone with the Dallas, TX boutique and they said there was an increase but only on two models. I'm sorry I didn't catch which two since it was not one that I own.

Travelller · 5 October 2013, 06:08 AM

Just like last year... why the surprise, guys?

No surprise, just some urgency in case of impending purchase.

zlin08033 · 5 October 2013, 12:38 PM

Wrong thread. sorry.

iLLGT2 · 5 October 2013, 04:21 PM

They need to be dropping price to increase sales, not increase... But Panerai has become terrible with marketing

Oh well

pegaki · 5 October 2013, 08:55 PM

just called the boutique here in Singapore, no increase

TswaneNguni · 6 October 2013, 02:19 PM

Good if you can time it right.1st of April 2008 it went up in the US but only on the 21st in SA.It went up by 15% in SA.So I spent big on Panerai before the 21st.
Dealers usually dont know,they get a fax or mail with the new pricing and thats that.I always find it amusing that the watches in stock also increase in price !!

Prices go up,your collection goes up in value too...thats good !

Aventura · 6 October 2013, 09:14 PM

I heard that in UK the prices increase 5 per cent.
I think that soon a friend of this Forum will check and tell us the news.
