Have the Tudor 'official' UK prices been announced yet ahead of their launch on 19th September? I'm after a Pelagos so wondering if I'm better going through an official dealer or through what's out there at the moment?

Anyone know how flexible a dealer is likely to be on price? I got 20% off my Seamaster in 2011 but sadly this dealer, while a Rolex AD, isn't getting Tudor...

£2955 I am led to believe. It's a cracking choice - it really is a great watch.

That's quite steep - think I'll shop elsewhere unless the dealer will haggle...

Agreed, it's very steep.

Cheaper (and more fun) to jump on a plane to Stuttgart or any other beautiful European city and pick one up.

Doubt there would be many takers at £3k .

Also considerably cheaper in Asia - approx 2.4-2.5k ish

Especially considering the strong £ at present.

There was conjecture they'd be £3K, but the figure I recall seeing was £2790, unless Rolex have put the prices up for the full roll-out – a bit of digging around shows they were available from Rolex ADs on request, and with a list price of £2770.

Im getting mine on the 19th from my local AD for £2034. This is a discounted price based on the £2400 proposed rrp we discussed in Jan. If they're talking nearer £3k now then im hopiny price hasn't changed. I'll phone them now. Give me 10 mins.

Goldsmiths wouldn't get me one. bds. I regret buying a Submariner when the Pelagos was just about to come out. Unfortunately I didn't know that at the time frown

£2770 according to my AD too. Bit of a jump from the £2400 they predicted earlier in the year. Hoping my price still stands else im off to chrono24......... #shouldhavedonethisinthefirstplace!

I was quoted £2,770 by a UK Rolex dealer last December, I managed £2,400 in France but Bodoni in Torino were more like £2,200 at the time!

Second (pardon the pun) Iconic Watches - they really do have some eye wateringly low prices for new watches. Anybody know how they manage to undercut ADs by the margins they do ?

Shame you have to venture into a place like Blackburn to purchase them, but hey hum. Lol.

Could have bought one in Dubai airport 2 weeks ago at 2k. Zero haggling.

They just buy in bulk from EU and Middle East dealers. Just go on Chrono 24, filter in Italy and new/unworn and voila, the cheapest prices in Europe

Is this UK launch a definite? I believe it's been on the cards for a while now.
Anybody know the locations of the Tudor ADs ?

UK dealers are already listed on the Tudor website. There are a few independent jewellers (eg George Pragnell near me) as well as WoS.

Nice one. Look forward to looking through the collection together rather than on the website. It'll make Omegas look expensive.

Just as a point of reference....I was in Florida last month and popped into an AD in one of the Malls who had just received the whole Tudor range. The Pelagos was $4300 inc 6% sales tax which, at the time, equated to £2530.

I tried on the Fast Rider Black Shield on leather - very, very nice but, in my opinion, too expensive @ $5600 (£3295).
