Delivery of 5711 or 5712 after price hike announcement
I am on a wait list for the 5712 in stainless.
Has anyone else who is on a wait list received either a 5711 or 5712 ever since the price hike was announced and has your AD given any feedback on whether they think you will get one before the new prices come into effect March 1? |

On the list for 5711 and my AD chuckled when I asked for odds of getting one before March 1.

I would be surprised if and AD would put a 5711 or 5712 out for sale before March 1st, even if they did receive a new shipment.

Oh and my AD said he doesn’t expect to get any 5711 or 5712 before March 1st but I’m small potatoes.

PP will reach out to the AD if any popular inventories such as the 5711/5712 are not sold soon after the shipment. If PP senses any foul play, that AD will receive less of such pieces going forward. |

I'm in a similar boat here. Deposit down on the next white 5711 (last delivery was White in July, Blue in Sept) with a prior expected delivery date of Dec/Jan. Reached out to the AD when the price increase was posted first on the forum and was given confirmation of price change but unfortunately no update on the watch. I did have hope for some good news as I was in Switzerland in Jan and was told that next shipments will come in Feb...again remaining skeptical. I'm waiting for people to post here for new arrivals since I'm guessing they will be sent out in batches at a similar time?

I didn't even request the watch initially until after they announced the price increase. |

Thanks. And yes, I've been under the impression that's the case regarding the price increase. All I meant in my original message was I hope it does not continue to rise some more so long as I am on the waitlist!

You can probably expect more increases over the next few years. I hope they increase shipments now that the price is up to clear up some of the waiting lists where people have paid in full or given substantial deposits.

Even if they have those in stock...pretty sure they would hold it for about a month and make 20% more right.

I guess we're getting close to the end of the month before the price increase without any new deliveries. I wonder what the estimates and production numbers will be going forward now.

Just to add to this discussion, I’ve been first on the waitlist for a blue 5711 with deposit since last April. Received a call from the AD this morning that they are not expecting to receive a blue 5711 this year and they will be refunding my deposit. I’m pretty bummed.

Yes the price hike is confirmed for those asking, no hope for those who didn’t get theirs yet...

Yeah, it’s seem odd that they would refund his deposit IF he is still #1 on the waitlist. But he’s been first on the waitlist since last April. Something is not adding up here.

Its more the no 5711's this year and has been #1 since last April. That's 20 months w/o a 5711. That seems weird. The deposit refund is good, since they have had it a long time.
