Historical Prices

[construda]

Sorry if this has been asked before, but is there any sort of reference for historical AP prices? For example what watches cost in the 2000s, 90s, 80s 70s etc. There are tons of different resources out there on different references, variations etc but it would be very interesting to track prices over time

Looks like inflation + a 25% extra helping by AP, compared to 2024 prices. Amazingly, I expected it to be worse. Looks like most action happened in the last 5 years.

Interesting to see you could jump into a Millenary for under 10k or a Lady Royal Oak for 7ish. When the cheapest Codes now are 25k.

I have not seen a current price list.
There was 35% inflation since 2012, so you are saying that prices have gone up 60%? Correct?

Jumbo went from $20k to $35k, in round numbers. So +70%, or a factor of 1.38 (CPI) x 1.25.

I think not all saw the same rate of increase.
Compare a rose gold Millenary with leather strap at $29,500 to a rose gold Code at $34,400
