Speculation on 15202 pricing due to Code 11:59

Who thinks that the price will go even higher because you're going have to buy a Code 11:59 to get on the list?

With 15500 price increase it is only natural too

Why would you have to buy an 11:59?

Sounds like unfounded speculation to me.

Had the exact same thought. Let's be real, nobody likes the Code 11:59 and AP will have a hard time moving them. If anyone wants a hot piece, AP will very very likely demand customer to buy a Code 11:59. It's an ongoing trend in the luxury goods world for years...like how you could buy a Birkin lolll

Me neither if they are only making 2000. I’m of then opinion the price on the 15202 is capped by the availability of the 15500, roc etc. In other words, for average Joe the 15202 is just daintier, more expensive and more hassle to set.

If they dont sell well at their boutiques, they will just change their sales for the watch being boutique only and sell it to their remaining multi-brand retailers to get rid of dead stock. But yes i agree, 2000 is not that many so they won't have much issues selling that amount of inventory which is spread out throughout the year. They dont even need to stick to that number as no one can confirm other than the manufacturer how many pieces they sell..

So that would be a yes on prices rising, with grey spin we don't need politicians no more.

I'm not sure man. You can't even read the black dials. And the white ones look weird. I see the tourbillion, the blue dial, the perpetual calendars moving but the rest are going to sit there and perhaps sell at 40% off eventually.
