.

You feel wrong, especially if you live in Switzerland ... where there have been no price increase from 2012/06 to 2020/01.

This year the only increase for Rolex watches in Switzerland was due to a VAT increase on January,1 from 7.7% to 8.1% . And even with this VAT increase , Rolex maintained its prices for most watches , all SS models in our case (except SS SkyDweller), and declined new VAT only on PM models.

Maintaining same prices when VAT increase can be seen as a price decrease ...

Please see attached pictures.

I might be another two to three years before that “For Display Only” sign is gone.

Rolex watches come with a wide price range, starting at $5,500 and soaring up to $75,000 MSRP, offering options for various budgets. Several factors influence their pricing, including the materials used, the introduction of new movements, the popularity of specific collections, and the complexity of the watch's features.

All of these things (and maybe a few that I left out) will likely need to be considered. I hope this helps!

ADs selling above retail?

Fellow members, on a country with 24% VAT (except Greece), how much does the Airking (126900) cost?

I am asking because I was quoted (from an AD) 7,800 euros before the price increase. It seemed way more than other countries (with the same currency) even after adjusting for VAT rate.

Welcome to the forum!

Refer to Finland on the table. Prices are always very, very close, if not identical, to GR RRP

Welcome to the forum! It's fascinating to hear about your Rolex journey. Considering the changes in the market and your evolving preferences, could you share which other watch brands are catching your interest, and what specific features or designs are drawing you towards them? Additionally, how do you navigate the current challenges in the market, such as zero stock at ADs and the fluctuating prices in the gray market, when exploring new timepieces?

No Date Sub is now 9800 Eur (Croatia, EU & 25% VAT), increase from 9400 EUR which was the case in November if I am not mistaken.

It’s larger size and more intricate bracelet. More material.

Thank you minute_man!
Since you are based in Greece, may I ask for any suggestions of ADs in Athens?
I only had negative experiences when looking for an Airking/Explorer (however, I was offered a steel Daytona which I rejected because I don't like it).
Not sure if I am allowed to ask for something like this in the public forum so maybe a private message would be more appropriate?

Best
