Rolex Price Hikes in January?

[bigrich]

First post here, this is a really useful forum and has taught me loads, in anticipation of buying my first Rolex.

I visited a few dealers in Orchard today, window shopping for a SS or TT GMT IIc, which I'm planning to buy in the next couple of months. Discounts on the SS list price of S$9,975 varied from 0 to 5%, while the TT can be had for 10% off the 14,xxx list price.

Of the three dealers, all told me that list prices would be going up soon. One said maybe it would be about a 10% hike. Another said new prices would come into effect on Jan 1st.

Does anyone have any information on this, as obviously I'd rather buy the watch tomorrow than spend an extra $1,000 on the same thing in a few weeks. Or, is this just sales staff trying to book a few more sales for 2010?
