Has been a bit depending on the swiss franc’s value the past years.
In the EU zone we could expect an increase around Bazel world. Percentagewise i would not have a clue. It has been like 2 years since the last one.... if i would gues, 5-6%...

As a frame of reference, the Rolex Air-King Date I won in a Rolex sales contest 46 years ago, came to me direct from Rolex, with a hang tag on it with a retail price of $215.00! Still have the watch. Wearing it today. In 1966, the steel and gold Date-Just was $475.00, and the Day-Date with bracelet was $1,995.00. I have a 32 year old price list from Rolex. Read it and weep!

Pump them up. And right up.
It'll stop me buying any more Rolex and Tudor.
And will push the second hand value of my stuff right up.

So Im looking forward to at least a snap 50% price rise. Sooner the better. Lets not wait for 2018. Start monday.

Yeah in my industry they have a general annual increase of about 5%. Original post was to see if Rolex did the same, clearly from the posts that's not the case.

I'm not so sure. I stopped by my local Rolex boutique a few weeks ago and they told me that prices were going up by around 10% in the new year. Of course they could have just been telling me that to get me to buy a watch ("You'll save so much money if you buy today!"), but I believe them. Pretty soon they are going to be in the >$10000 range for a basic Submariner... I'm starting to struggle to see the value in that honestly.

i suppose i can let the no date sub dream pass, i had always planned on rebuying another 14060M. a recent browsing of the rolexforums sales pages shows many going in to the 6ks
