It is equivalent to USD$9,200. Is the tax included?

No. The MSRP at AD is 71.000 NOK. The NOK / USD fluctates alot these days. Today that means 9.500 USD.

[Sarko]

Official list price at the AD is 7850 EUR (incl. VAT) in the Netherlands (no discount is given on this watch)

Grey price is 7500-7600 (incl. VAT)

VAT in the Nethelands is 21%

Athens Greece price was 8,000 Euros inc. VAT - I paid significant deposit (almost all) when USD-EUR exchange rate was good 1-2 months back. I'm about to gain some exchange rate good fortune as the exchange rate went more favorably towards EUR since the deposit when I get my VAT back. At today's rate all in a little more than $6800 USD for me.

Also, AD has said there is serious shortage of GMT and Subs (at least in Europe), especially BLNR - they hadn't gotten one in months. I was lucky to have pulled the trigger when I did in that respect also. Shortage is same thing someone said about Germany a few posts ago.

TLV airport in Israel had one one display at H. Stern. They were asking $9,700, and before I even tried to negotiate they dropped it to $9,300. I am not in the market for one, it was pretty nice though.

It was almost 5% discount, wasn't it?

[Mr. O.L. Field]

$8950 no tax in Montana

[Steel28]

I'm embarrassed to say how much discount I got on mine (personal deal from my AD).

[DocJekl]

$8950 no tax with DavidSW

[hornchurch]

Priced a BLNR in Goldsmiths, Essex, England.
£5950, no discount.
Still saving so not to concerned.

May go on cruise to West Indies next year, will try to pick one up if price is right,

I wonder if those who have received discounts from their AD's feel the same way so that the data points on this thread are skewed higher?

It does not seem like there is a shortage to me since it seems like almost every AD I've been in for the past month has had the BLNR in stock.

Bought mine at a price that made me pull trigger even though I wasn't looking at that time. It was deal I couldn't refuse at 7600

[busytimmy]

You guys in the US are very lucky. The AUD is still falling. I just snagged a new BLNR in Singapore and they sell about 1-1.5K above retail at ADs! I managed to get one almost on retail. That's after visiting more than 7 boutiques and grey dealers - only one other had stock.

I thought ADs are not allowed to sell Rolex more than retail.
I cant believe people are paying those prices.
Here in US its really not that hard to get one. Just look at all incomings

Cool, my BLNR is from Singapore too!

That's a great price. At $7,600 I'm a buyer. Seems like in the for sale section here it's still trending around list.

Even with the above MSRP in Singapore, for me it was still cheaper than buying at a discount from the US. AUD is that poor against the USD at the moment. Two years ago I picked up a Hulk from DavidSW for significantly less than I'd have paid here. Either way, I have to buy from other countries since Rolex aren't too concerned with sending enough stock to Australian dealers. That, and the Chinese uber-wealthy that are buying everything up with blatant disregard for MSRP.

[armskoteman]

I purchased mine from Tokyo about a month back at 850,000 JPY, which is about 7200 USD based on the exchange rate at that time.

Went to many ADs and only managed to find one piece in Ginza. Really happy with the price given that Singapore ADs are retailing at way above MSRP

I've fully paid for the watch and just waiting for its arrival. I will be calling the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission to see if the AD is within their rights to increase the price of a product that has already been ordered and fully paid for.

What came of this, King1412? I bet I know the AD a well.

[Arjan93]

€6500 @ schiphol airport rolex boutique, Amstedam the Netherlands.
They don't reserve tho, just have to be lucky they have one. 7150$ at todays rate

[anthonybsd]

AD in New Jersey, US. $8950 (no discount), no tax (shipped to my home)

[EddyG]

Paid £5250 for mine in Jersey (Channel islands) and also given an additional form to claim back £250 in taxes, so £950 off the retail

[Pattyb69]

Anyone know what the current retail is in EU? I was at an AD here in Greece and saw the msrp was €8950 and not €7900 like in Italy back in March. When I asked the AD, he said there were 2 price increases in EU. One in October 2014 and one came after the new 5 year warranty increase. Can anyone verify this for me?
