So the preowned shop WxxxWxx has no sub / GMT listed for sale. Sold out or held up?

Just goes to reinforce why Rolexes generally are good bets when buying watches.

I understand that this recent increased is due to our ringgit depreciation.
Rolex's yearly increase not included yet.
So could be another round.

What's with premium and without premium price?

Are the prices inclusive GST?

Prices should be inclusive of GST. Yes, our ADs mark up hot pieces and pocket the extras. Up to a month ago, the LV was already asking RM39k at some places, which is frankly quite ridiculous. But you know how it goes; as long as folks are willing to pay, this practice will continue on. Perhaps there is more sense to pick up a 114060 now.

List price first, followed by out-the-door price with premium. All including GST.

Anyway these perpetually hot SS models will mostly never be sold without premium in ADs. I think it's been quite a long time since sports models is sold at list, excluding Sub ND, Explorer of course. I can only recall the Green Sapphire Milgauss (not exactly a sports model) being super hot at one point with super high premium but few years later it went back to list.

The lately increase of Rolex official RRP has affected the preowned prices increase as well.  :Blue:

what will be the impact moving forward with this sky high Rolex price?
1. Pre-owned watches will be in hot demand? or demand towards new watches will be slow down?
2. i see those paying in foreign currency will have no impacts but not on ringgit.
3. demand towards other brand as alternative will be increased?
4. would there be a increase of supply on those high demand model with premium prices such as Daytona, submariner hulk and GMT Batman?
Crown all the way...Rolex

Has anyone been to any ADs today to verify the price increase? Saw from another site a happy chap whom sported the SD4K for RM38,000 nett yesterday at an AD, which they told him that the price today would include an additional 7% to increase to RM40,660. Another friend wanted to get the SubC but the AD wanted a premium already even as of yesterday, so no point in picking it up. Even grey resellers' ads on BLNR and Hulk seemed to have increased by some margin.

An AD told me that the increase this round was from the higher replenishment cost due to depreciating currency (so any extra earnings from current stock was just one-off), so the official Rolex annual increase should come further down the road.
This is the price I was quoted.
SubC Black - 33,650 (it was 31.xxx)
SubC Green - 35,xxx (no stock)
GMT Black - 33,xxx (after increase. It was 30,820)
Crown all the way...Rolex
