New 2018 US pricing

Looks like they just updated their website with price increases across the board of about 5-10%. Finally happened after years of flat pricing. Glad I got mine just a few weeks back!

That is quite a first post. First off welcome to the forum. Secondly, I just logged on to Rolex.com and pricing has not changed. Is this an April fools joke you were late to?

Someone made a similar claim a few weeks ago. It ended up they were accessing the Rolex web site from Mexico vs the US and prices appeared slightly higher. Any chance you did a similar thing?

"Hah! I made several people spend thirty seconds looking at the Rolex website!"

I'm skeptical that was his clever plan. You'd have to be a pretty inept troll for that to be your endgame. I think more likely he accessed from somewhere with a minor currency conversion difference since the last time he looked.

Made me look though. A bit of a panic because I'm waiting for one to come in any time now.

Only the gray salesmen will have increased although I do not believe it. Rolex did not increase prices. It is the same anyway, because watches are not available.

did you look the last time in 2012? In that case you are correct.

Everything goes up in price. If people keep posting this weekly, eventually someone will be the first to report it. Best of luck to you all.
