I don't know, I was never a fan of Rolex designs and don't really check their pricing. But a quick search shows that Jomashop sells it for $100 less than what you've been quoted. Not that it's significant enough in this case and your retailer would likely give you more discount if you are serious, I am guessing.

From my observations, for whatever reason, Swiss watch prices are almost always better in New Jersey. Even when there is some good sale somewhere else, New Jersey watch dealers can beat it.

P.S. Out of curiosity, I've just checked it. The only Calgary dealer selling Rolex is Brinkhaus. Rolex sets the prices for each country. The price quoted was $10,868 CDN including tax, which is approximately $8,800 US using today buy exchange rate, so it would be a slightly better deal than what you're getting, I suppose. However; they don't have this watch in stock and the wait time upon order would be 5-6 months.
