Discount on AP 26331ST Blue Dial
I am almost ready to pull the trigger on 26331ST Blue Dial Chrono.
Has anyone had any history with any discounts from AD or non AD? thanks in advance |

good luck with that. I would say small to no discount from an AD. Great watch though
David SW is selling the silver version which is not nearly as popular and its 7% off retail price. Blue would be less of a discount than that, if he had one. |

In the US it is not boutique only, at least not yet. I purchased my direct from the NYC boutique (who confirmed this to be the case).

AP's website lists boutique exclusives as well. The new ROC's are not, except the special edition Pt/Ti. |

sounds about right. Its £20,500 in the UK so about 34,500 canadian loonies. The extra, is punishment for having such a ridiculous name for your money.

You can save 8% by exporting out of province or the full 13% out of country, but sheesh. |

ouch. You are on the US system of artificially making prices look lower by not including applicable tax? That drives me crazy. I just assumed my home country was the only place that insisted on doing that. I guess you guys tax by province like how the US taxes based on state so the rate varies?

In this moment they modified on the site AP ROC blue dial and not appear like Boutique Edition. BUT the main questions are the suply!!! Because like you say it’s more AD who don’t received one till now and I don’t think they will received one! It’s a market strategy for AP to can sell AP ROC ti/platinum who are not sell! Let’s be honest the new ROC blue dial it’s more good look then ROC ti/platinum! And it’s 50% of the ROC ti/platinum at price! |

I am not sure if this is a Boutique only watch because I did buy a Navy dial in denmark from an AD and I actually got a discount on it too.
The price was 166.000 DKK + %19 back Basically when I bought it back in November, I got it for $20.500 |

It’s ridiculous but it’s a market strategy who works if we look to Rolex who use this strategy for many years! About AP ROC ti/platinum I still think it’s not selling very good because the price like you say and also because if we think about bezel who are the weak point of AP ROC and in this version are made from platinum who are more weak then steel then we can see why it’s not a bestseller! Also I talk I think in May with AP Boutique Prague and they have one and not many people like it. |

Govberg had a blue dial roc 2 weeks ago along with both the black and white dial versions. Also had 44 Ti, 44RG. They are not a boutique.

The blue dial is no longer boutique, all three are novelties. Canadian prices on AP are ridiculous!
