If we're assuming the prices for the ND Sub included 20% VAT, that would put the ND at about $6,500 USD, not over $8K

it's YM not YM2. Which "blue bezel" is it referring?

"calendar" means Skydweller?

He meant to say blue dial and yes the Calendar is referring to the Skydweller.

Again, using the same VAT assumption and the Blue Yacht is about $10K, not $14K. US Dollar terms.

That submariner no-date ceramic is a must-have... Especially if they priced it below $7K.. an all-around rolex for under $7k.. and it is still has rolex quality and name.. yey!

I thought when the SS Sub and GMT went over $5k, no one was dumb enough to pay over $5,000 for a steel watch.

let's see what happens when they hit 5 figures.
shouldn't be too long....

So, YG Sky-Dweller: €36.785

In USD: 0.8 * €36.785 * 1.4 = $42,200

Ugh!!!

The DJII price seems to be a bit too low at only $7,450? current retail for fluted bezel is 8600... Are you sure of these prices?

I doubt this to be the case.. The YM is already 11200 in SS so with the new bracelet there will certainly not be a price DECREASE... I am guessing 13-14k respectively..

Fluted bezel is Gold, new domed bezel is steel so sounds about right.

That price of the SubC can't be right. The 14060M is already $6300. My guess is somewhere close to $7000.

Rolex most likely uses its own conversion rate for US pricing so that US prices are probably higher than what people are calculating.

no date Sub should be priced about the same as Explorer I, if touching the price of Hulk, how much they are going to ransom for the price increase for the Hulk in 2012? Daytona price?

Going for a Tudor Heritage Black Day or Pelagos, at least they have new look that are thoughtfully designed and hey the Pelagos has luminescence on the bezel numbers but not on any sub! And it comes with two straps!

Tudor ... not sure of their prices.

Rolex is the new Patek (pricing-wise)

Tudor is the new Rolex?

Base on my last purchase in London..The actual (nett) after VAT refund is not 20% ..it should be around 15%....(5% for handling fees etc..)

Not quite Patek yet, Mark. My dream watches are the 3939/A ($1.9M) and 5204P (paltry $317.5k)... just to name a couple.
