Price increased for year 2017

Any news on the price increased?

Every year AP would increase their MRSP by 5-15% on average and we are ending 2016 soon. Will there be a price hike???

Can't say I have noticed those price increases in the US. Currency adjustments but I think any real price increases would be pretty stupid.

Doubt it in the US since the $ is strong. I've heard AP sales are good but watch sales are still down overall worldwide. Doesn't seem like a good time for a price increase.

In the UK all manufacturers have increased by 10% following the EU Referendum and some including Vacheron have just had a second 10% increase, a chronograph Overseas now costs £27,000 compared to £22,000 for an Offshore.

Not surprising Ash, with the way pound has fallen. Unfortunately, I had to miss out on some excellent bargains when Brexit news just broke in July. Bought a truck load of other stuff though which will cost much more in my home city. London is such a bargain nowadays that I am going back again next month.

Replying to the OP, other than UK, I highly doubt it is the right time for any brands to raise prices.

VC had a second rise? Gives credence to AD Chris, GMT-Master's, theory that even Rolex would have another price rise or two.
