that's about US$7400 which is the best I've seen so far.
Grey sets in Singapore are going for about US$7900.

I bought in February for full monty $8,950 but no sales tax since I had it shipped out of state. This was in Chicagoland. This was hard to find and all the ADs I called say they could sell it for full price. In my heart of hearts, I hate paying full retail.

$8950.
Bought mine in June last year (first one they got) full MSRP but no TAX in Delaware.
1 year 0% interest if paid off in full within 365 days.

Today's MSRP in Brazil, R$ 33.590,00 = US$ 11670,00 / €10.418,00

However, you can have up to 7% discount on the BLNR and 10% on Hulk. Here, they are virtually the same price...

Worst place on Earth to buy manufactured goods...

PS - Check Apple stuff for example...

Sales tactic. Look at the myriad of posts by Ken, and others, about this.

ADs have no idea when or what the increase will/when be. They are sent a new price list a couple days before.

If Rolex were to do a price adjustment, it would probably be limited geographically to account for currency fluctuation. I would be shocked if they just did a blanket 10% worldwide.

My doubt was about being worldwide or not...
It will happen here for sure. They said it will happen after Monday.

All Rolex prices in Brazil are based in US Dollars/Swiss Francs and the price is really increasing...

Wow!

11.7K usd is insane!
Here in Korea the BLNR retail is 9.6K usd. (no increase yet)

None of the ADs I spoke to in the Chicagoland area would discount the BLNR. There are people who would buy them for full pop. It's still in high demand.

Increase is worldwide, its happening next month systematically throughout the first 2 weeks. Rates ranges from 5%-10% initially with possibility of second increase to follow shortly after. One of the reasons, is the adjustment to currency variations and the appreciation of the Swiss Franc. Rolex wants their line to be within 5% worldwide, eliminating cross country variance.

Retail of BLNR as at today in Malaysia is RM28,630.00 equivalent to around USD8,065. All ADs are out of stock and there is no longer a wait list. ADs and grey (both joining forces) are selling 15% above retail and still sold out due to overwhelming demand.

Ordered mine last month for AUD$9500 (about US$7400 after exchange rate). I paid in full and was told the watch will arrive in 6 weeks but now the AD is asking for an extra AUD$900 since there is a price rise in Australia on March 1. Can the AD do that? Is that legal? I've fully paid for the watch and just waiting for its arrival. I will be calling the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission to see if the AD is within their rights to increase the price of a product that has already been ordered and fully paid for.

$8480 from the AD where I live.
I'm surprised that it is the cheapest that I have come across. Considering I live in a very expensive country.
