5% of 20k is 1k; 5 % of 30k is 1.5k.. no small change.

I believe the new sub-C models were released at the adjusted price, hence there is no change in their current retail price.

Scott, if due to weak Euro, the price should drop than up, right?

When I asked this same question to the AD, they gave or kind of BS.  :HammerHead:

i think because Euro weak and it become cheaper in Asia already? so, increase price in asia sort of balance the selling price compare to EU?

not too sure and i guess they never explain why la...

Can't imagine, we in the third world are subsidizing the Euro market!

yesterday in KL, The AD told me the price will be revised up coming Monday. Both rolex and Tudor. The sub-c and the respective lv price will go up accordingly. Damn it is already Approx rm3k premium now.

The Tudor heritage seems like a hot item but with discount. I think matter of time before they put it in premium category if responses r good

For Tudor Heritage, SA from 1 of the Rolex Shop in KLCC told me they are selling 1k above retail price  :HammerHead:. Noticed 1 shop selling with discount but another shop selling with premium. Same goes to GV and Daytona. Price different is so great. Conclusion, always ask around before purchase. Cannot loyal to only 1 shop.

Sadly the shop that give discount have no stock for Tudor Heritage gray  :(

That's why I hardly ever buy from local ADs.In UK,europe,US,I can buy without sneaky premiums being loaded.The hot models are put on display,and not like the local ones who take it out of the safe when there is an interested party willing to pay a premium
