I thought Rolex just increased the price a few months back.  They must be doing very well.  Anyway, I am done with this year's purchase (if I can trust myself)!   ;D

It's possible, Rolex adjust their product price almost every year... twice a year sometimes..

Quite true, not uncommon for them to increase twice a yr.
When i bought my SD many yrs ago overseas is because the price was schedule to increase around Sept or Oct and i can only come back to Msia for holidays during xmas.
Ended up bought my SD in US for that reason.

Darn ... I should have gotten my GMT Master II when I was in Europe two weeks ago!  It looks like at this rate I will never own a Rolex unless I got a pre-owned one.    :HammerHead:

What to do ... the IWC is an unplanned purchase!  Now I am blaming this Seiya san ... just when I was going to order my GS, he went sick and had a blur assistant that doesn't seem to understand English and keep on sending me standard replies when I asked if they have stock for SBGE001.  I got fedup and look around and ended up with an IWC!  Back to Rolex, I should have gotten it while in Amsterdam.  I could sell it here and make a handsome profit!

Send your resume to Rolex then, none of us work for them here.
Maybe you can cut their grass and clean toilets. Even those employees wear Rolex.
