Hi Guys the Sub C black in UK is £ 4740, but for any of you interested to buy it is the best time.I've been told by my AD that in january the prices will go up twice VAT increase and another price rise from Rolex, so all watches will be more expensive, so better grab one now if you didn't.
Though to tell you this, in case it helps.

Well... There is a talk of another 2.5% VAT increase in Jan (total of 20% by then)

Haven't heard of another price increase on top of that yet... How certain is your AD?

I hope Chris and Mark can confirm that soon

thesmallwave · 30 November 2010, 05:56 AM

Well my Ad is quite certain, he told me about the last price increase way before it happen but i didn't got enough money for my deposit, i think the VAT will go from 17% -20% and a second prive increase from Rolex.Well i will pay the same price no matter how much prices will go up anyway.

Kanger · 30 November 2010, 06:05 AM

Another price increase??? Jolly...

Joey_V · 30 November 2010, 06:07 AM

Goodness....

I find that very hard to believe, at least not a global price increase.

The price increase from Rolex will be for sure for UK, i am not sure about other countries.We shall see anyway.

snog · 30 November 2010, 06:36 AM

could well be true but I would think that discounts will be available on the sub c soon so that would cancel out any raise so maybe no need to rush.

I've heard this one for the uk as well

ersnyder · 30 November 2010, 10:01 AM

Be interesting to see if Rolex actually does pull off another increase!

Lol-x · 30 November 2010, 10:09 AM

VAT (value added tax) = 20% man that is crazy

We have the same thing called GST (goods and services tax) at 10% and I deplore it

Sorry to hear you guys will have 20% in the U.K.

Wisconsin Proud · 30 November 2010, 10:33 AM

VAT, GST.....are nothing but economy busters. Some day it will hit the States and the you will see real unemployment.

Have to agree with poor sales reported on some new models Rolex themselves would be crazy to put prices up.But as for the UK vat increase the way its going they will soon be taxing the air we breath.

thesmallwave · 1 December 2010, 08:35 AM

In january prices will go way up for all Rolex watches here in UK..We may need to buy abroad then?

esm · 1 December 2010, 08:43 AM

But do factor the travel associated cost in.... That may not work out ideal (unless you get tax free, then again you should declare it when coming back... So..)

thesmallwave · 1 December 2010, 08:46 AM

You should have no problem if you get it for yourself or declare it a gift right?Or there is Rolex policy?

tictocChuck · 1 December 2010, 08:57 AM

Rumor also of a price increase in Canada (per my AD up there) early in the New Year. No sure of the percentage since they already sell at a premium over the US and the dollars are on par, but who said logic has anything to do with it....ha!

gypsy · 1 December 2010, 09:01 AM

I heard rumour of price increase on top of VAT increase in UK, may be rubbish but wouldn't surprise me with current exchange rates
