Boutiques Not Taking Deposits on 15202 or Blue 15400
Yesterday I called all of the boutiques in the US. NYC said no deposits on the 15202 or 15400 blue until 2018. Miami said not until 2019. Beverly hills just said not taking deposits at this time. Vegas told me I can put down a full deposit, but they could not give me a time frame beyond "at least 6 months." I offered full deposit each time I called. I found this a little strange, but I guess it explains Govberg selling a 15202 for over $25k.

So stupid. I can't wait for the market to tank. They will be offering an old fashioned to anyone buying these at the boutique within a year.

I was in Vegas this May and a 15202 was on the display at a store adjacent to the Venetian. No deposit required.

It's crazy. I've noticed over the past few weeks, prices on several models (new and preowned) have crept up. There are still plenty available, so I don't know what's causing it. Doesn't affect me. I got my 116613LN a few weeks ago and have been offered a 20% discount on a new Tudor BB with ETA from an AD. May have to pick that up.

I had the opportunity to purchase a 15202 blue dial in Bal Harbor AP boutique in May but didn't go for it. Now I want it. Human nature. Go figure.

Well, I had the opportunity to buy a 15202 from the Hong Kong boutique in March with a small discount. When I went back in July, they had it in stock, but were firm on no discounts.
At least now, I don't feel as bad paying full list price for it. |

I guess my investment paid off. Does anyone have any market analysis of when I should unload these?

Valuations on Chrono24 are as they were, generally speaking...but it is surprising to see relatively few pieces available...various London-based grey market dealer's websites also show no stock. |

I was at the NYC boutique in person during the PP Exhibition in July. The sales lady told me if I wanted a steel 15202, to put a deposit down and I'd have it in a few months. 6 weeks later and now they're acting like this is a PP5711 blue dial. WTF!?
I'm hoping when I have the funds to buy a RG or YG 15202 in 2-3 years, the prices will collapse and I can get a discount on it. |

That is strange, I bought my 15400 blue dial from Beverly Hills, they had one to me in a few days - no discount. Call Ebony there and tell her Bryan sent you.

When I was in Vegas last october the AP boutique told me and even showed me paperwork of few people had even paid for the watch in full and would have received them by the end of year.
I was told if I'd paid a full deposit then would get one within 6 months. I was on list in UK but then in Feb was told by my AD it was boutique piece only. So in May paid deposit at Geneva boutique and got the call few weeks ago that it as arrived. Finally getting around to picking it up next week , currently sitting in the safe factory sealed in those patek like cardboard boxes they now ship in :-) |

According to the PP subforum guys, PP isn't giving out the cardboard boxes anymore. Some angry PP watch buyers over there because of that.

Yes they told me that at the Paris Boutique and an AD the same day. Both just received one, I could get it if I wanted, both said first come first served

I've got a few of the green cardboard service boxes. I don't know why anyone would want them or think they would add value. Although i kept them for some reason.

Its probably nothing unique to those 2 models nor the brand but the widely publicised pickup in the luxury watch market that is emerging out of several bad years. Naturally the more popular models will feel it first.
