Rolex price increase

I just bought a Rolex as a gift for my hubby today (in Singapore). The SA told me that the price increase would happen anytime today or tomorrow. I selected the watch and the SA committed the price based on the price tag. As I was making the payment, the SA told me that the systems just had the prices revised upwards! Fortunately, the SA honoured the pre-increase price. Had i gone into the shop an hour later, I will have to pay more!
 
Ick! Is the price increase worldwide or just in certain countries? I was planning to get a lady-datejust when I visit Taiwan in November (no tax and supposedly it costs less in Taiwan vs. US).
