When I bought my SMP last week from an actual Omega boutique in the US (5th ave NYC) I inquired about this price increase and none of the associates knew about it. They even asked other associates in front me and they too had no clue.
Are the SMPs going up again?
The tax gets you every single time...
the watch isn’t meant to be the latest technology, it is not metas certified like the most recent co-axial movements. It is a limited production reproduction of a vintage movement made to satisfy demand from hardcore fans and collectors. It is arguably much more rare than a standard steel Daytona, that is mass produced. The only reason you can’t buy a Daytona is because dealers are feeding them to gray market and back door taking kick backs under table from gray market dealers. The Ed White is pretty much only delivered to boutiques that are owned by Swatch. Rolex doesn’t own their own stores.

Kind of off-topic, but how does that total work? The column shows VAT (MWST) but the VAT is not included in the total at the bottom.
