Hi all can someone tell me what the last RRP of the Pilot SS withy SS utc was before it was discontinued?

£ preferably

bump

Hope I'll remember to answer that tonight.

Hi, Alex. In the U.S. the Pilot bracelet/UTC kit was last listed as being available in the 2004 Chronolog. As you know, the UTC specific 352A and 353A bracelets were for the Crosswind models and Headwind in the Windrider series. The A70174 module listed for $725USD and the bracelets were $950USD (same RRP as for the regular 350A). The A70174 module was continued for the B-1/B-2 watches through 2006 and the price remained $725USD. The Crosswind models had been dropped after 2004 and the Headwind lasted one year past that. Even though the Chronologs never showed the Headwind with the UTC, the sales handbook specified the same A70174 for the HW. Had the 352A/353A UTC specific Pilot bracelets continued production after the demise of the CW models, the price would have been increased another $50USD to $1000USD in 2005 because the UTC specific bracelets and "regular" bracelets paralleled RRP's. Of course the B-1 and B-2 used the 877A Fighter bracelet with the same A70174 UTC module and that bracelet listed for $250USD from 2004 right through 2006. I am assuming of course you asked the questions based on a recent acquistion so all the information is for the 22mm SS UTC module kits. Interestingly, the 20mm UTC module RRP or the Chronomat was $50USD less ($675USD) than the 22mm versions $725USD) for the CW models or B-1/B-2 models. When the 22mm interhorn width Chronomat Evolution was introduced in 2005, the A70177 UTC module for it also had a RRP of $725USD but for 2006 (last year for ALL analog UTC modules) the RRP was kicked up to $850USD RRP. Confused yet? LOL. Sorry I didn't have the GBP prices for you but I hope this helps, mate.
Cheers,
Ron
