Omega Price Rise?

Hi, I was talking to an assistant from a very well known UK watch store chain and was advised that Omega were due to put their prices up by approx. 15% & expected this to take place around the end of Jan 2015.

I am hoping to have funds in place to purchase both a Speedmaster Professional (moon watch) and a Seamaster Professional 300m (black face) during the second half of 2015 but am concerned after being told the above. I thought I read somewhere else that Omega usually announced prices increases in October?

Does anyone have any idea if UK prices will be going up in 2015, or was this just someone trying to "encourage" me to buy now?

Thanks

oldest sales trick in the book....

March to May is normally the time when the watch manufacturers put up their prices, it coincides with one of the big watch shows in Switzerland - Baselworld

There is no such thing as a month when manufacturers increase prices......just a sales technique. Keep saving and check out some of the well known on-line "grey dealers" for a heavy discount on new Omegas........you should be able to save 20-30% on the list price for a new Speedmaster.
