Below's a summary new prices of the more popular sports models including the new Sky Dweller.
In recent years Rolex prices have been increasing at an exponential rate, while, sad to say, the average Malaysian's salary have been pretty much stagnant.
Is Rolex pricing their timepieces out of our reach? :o
And why is the Deepsea now priced higher than the SS Daytona? ???
| Model | Reference | RRP |
| Deepsea Sea Dweller | 116660 | RM37480 |
| Submariner Date Black Index | 116610LN | RM26410 |
| Submariner Date Green Index | 116610LV | RM28050 |
| Submariner No Date Black Index | 114060 | RM23160 |
| GMT Master II Black Index | 116710LN | RM26080 |
| Explorer 1 | 214270 | RM20240 |
| Explorer II | 216570 | RM25130 |
| Milgauss | 116400 | RM23800 |
| Milgauss Green Crystal | 116400GV | RM25440 |

Jesus!!
Amen to that!
Or maybe i n the near future they are going to produce a SS Daytona with a ceramic bezel n price it 40+K.
That sounds totally plausible.
But daytona is selling at premium compare to Deepsea.. No offense but deepsea look in-proportion to me..
One man's meat is another man's poison. ;D
and i forgot, its actually pro n con situation. Its good for the second hand retailers and those who want to sell to upgrade but bad for those going for new ones.
In other words asset inflation. :'(

Hardly any AD will sell a SS Daytona at RRP anyway.
As for Rolex prices beyond the reach of our middle-income group, well.. blame that on our low salaries and poor exchange rate.

Even a simple exp 1 is now at that bracket.
Nowadays, it is now 'harder' to own these new sport rollie with a decent income.
What can I say....

From your statement it would seem that those who own multiple Rolex sports models probably have some kind of indecent income stream. ;D (Just kidding)
Actually the ADs are now mitigating this issue by offering attractive "zero interest" installment plans up to 18 months. So it is still possible for a decent income earner to own a dream watch by using these creative financing schemes.

Is this being offered by the AD or the banks? If it is indeed being offered by the AD, do they release the watch upon the completion of he payment or earlier?
If this is being offered by the banks, it is a different story altogether.

The zero interest installment plan is a form of credit card financing. Since payment is via CC then the financing part is by the banks. It seems to be the modus operandi not just for the ADs but also practiced by the jewellers etc.
A fairly disturbing trend if you ask me.

Better than saving for 18 months and found out the price increased by 10%(usually more) by the time you have the total sum...

I can only say read your cc terms and condition properly before embarking on the 'zero' interest installment plan.
Post by: dpkong on July 05, 2012, 08:24:45 PM
1. the bank and seller would likely have an agreement that a certain percentage of the sale amount will be "finance charges".
2. the bank hopes that in the duration of the repayment period, the card holder will not be able to fully pay up and thus incur additional interest charges.
in the end, the cardholder will always lose out. beware the hidden charges.

The hike in price is reflective of the ongoing prices of other watchmakers. However, it does price itself out of reach certainly for a huge bulk of the people. In one hand, owners of existing Rolex'es will have their timepiece greatly appreciated. For those who is saving or eyeing for one now will feel the pinch. I am certainly one of those who now need to wait longer to be able add more of it to my humble collection.
I guess my GMT master II will have to wait....

I was at an AD earlier the week and nearly bagged a Daytona Ceramic, but the premium was on the higher side. The AD shared that Rolex Malaysia prices on all watches would be adjusted upwards within a month or two due to the depreciating currency, although I can't tell if it was just to get me to close the deal then.
For what I know Rolex won't let AD know when they plan to increase price, anyone can proof it?
