Price increases? Rolex

[max b]

Whilst web browsing yesterday, I few sites seemed to suggest Rolex may be putting prices up v.soon. Has anybody else any info on this?

It's frustrating enough that the 45.5mm PO I was going to buy has gone up to £2650 - 2 price increases this year (wish my birthday was at the beginning of the year!)
My thoughts then lead me to think I might as well put in a bit more in and by the large size Datejust 116334 I like but web reading suggests that these are also going up. Current prices seems to be £5360.

Anybody know if prices are going up?

A lot of chatter mentioning 7% increase on June 1. Apparently to correct the price imbalance between GB and EU....

Presumably ADs would know about these increases already, thus if I placed an order today/tomorrow I should still be able secure the current price, even if delivery was in a few weeks times? ie if model wanted was not in stock?

Thanks

Sorry Max, you and the AD pay the delivered price. Standard practice, not just Rolex....

I picked my PO 45.5mm up from Northern Goldsmiths for £2k in February. To be honest I didn't really need to negotiate much to get that discount. People on here have had them for less too .
