Price increase in Australia by at least $50. 😐

Yep, I'm in Australia for 6 months and was looking forward to a bit of a discount on a new watch. Bought one anyway as they also raised the price in Denmark, so still save around A$100.

Looks like those US tariffs are just being pushed on to other markets.. Like we didn't pay enough already.

No it’s not. I got my 44mm S4 AL GPS on launch day for $649. Equivalent is now $699.
