Better go out and purchase all the new SS sport models now in case of an increase.

Wasn't that the addition of the Jubilee bracelet?

The BLRO came out at $9250, $300 over the Oyster BLNR. I would consider it a new model update (Jubilee and new movement) versus a price raise.

Pretty sure there was an increase in November 2016 and some point in 2018 in the UK. For example, in Oct 2016 an Explorer 2 was £5350 and then jumped to £5950 the following month. I think it was last year that it went up to its current rrp of £6250

He's right , last price increase in UK was oct. 2018. Previous was november 2016 there.

New movment have'nt been installed in the black sub date yet, maybe next year at Basel. 116610ln in uk is 6550£ actually, was 6250£ before oct.2018 and was 5700£ before Nov.2016 (since june 2012).

My 116613LB turned up in November 2018. So I remember the UK price rise very well. I can't think why anyone would be miffed about not having a price rise imposed on them. Anybody want mine? I'll happily pass it on if it's a comfort of some sort.
