Tudor list price to rise in the UK
I've heard from 2 separate AD's that Tudors UK list price is set to increase by 5% on September 1st.

Well I don't think it would be a suprise to anyone if UK prices for both Rolex and Tudor increased very soon but I'm always a little sceptical when AD's mention this.
I'm not doubting you or your info but I've also been told this on more than one occasion when they're looking to make a sale, they haven't been correct so far.

given the pound sterling is at its all time low, this hardly surprises
it would be unfair to clients who cannot just over the weekend fly to London to stock up with watches. so yes, it makes sense, and this is the Price (sorry UK) of a weak currencies... one can't have it all... strong currency, strong country.....remember |

It's happening. I was told by a Tudor employee at a Tudor event last week and I have also been told by an AD

I thought it might happen in Canada too, since they're a relatively good value here, but it didn't. Maybe I'll get that 114060 after all.

They are still great value though - even with the price rise.

Up roughly 5%.
We are paying for David Beckham's recent ambassadorship. It won't be long before our fellow members across the pond will be paying for Lady Gaga's.
