That's a 13% increase? That doesn't make sense?

There were 2 price increases since your purchase till Sep 2021, 41k+ first (IIRC) and then to 44.3k in Sep 2021. No price increases since, I bought 3 APs between Oct ‘21 and Nov ‘21 and the prices in SGD has remained unchanged today.

Compounded 5% over 2Y makes sense.

Thanks for covering!

I haven’t checked the online pricing for a long time, didn’t realise the price went up in Sept.

Prob room for more increases, secondary market continues to increase.

Looks like most pieces were held the same with exception of a few. 26420RO had a 3-4% increase

15407ST is the same
26405CE is the same

Just spot checked a couple

That's in the running for the least bold watch-related rumor around. Still hoping that's not the only announcement for 1/1

Did I remember correctly but it seems every market increased today except UK? 15500st was £21,400 and still same whereas EU markets increased about €1k?

Somewhat annoying, but unlikely to really put a dent in demand.

For most people, they probably aren't even aware of the price increase.
Still, I think AP is being too aggressive with their quarterly price changes.
Of course, I have a vested interest in saying this because I don't want to pay extra by the time I get a call for something....

Wasn’t the last major increase on 1/1/2021 a year ago? There was 3 in those 12 month preceding which was very aggressive though..

Of course it won't put a dent in demand. AP watches are cheaper than NFTs. INVEST INVEST INVEST. FLIP FLIP FLIP.

What a mess.
