I am going to China in a few weeks. I have been there and I know that to buy fake high quality brands Beijing is a good place but higher price than Shenzhen, close to Hong Kong.
But I am wondering where is the place in China that high quality and price are the best for fake goods as bags, watches, etc?

Bringing a few counterfeit goods home from an overseas trip is rarely a problem. In fact, Customs officers generally expect it, but will only tolerate it to a certain level.

If you return home with suitcases full of counterfeit goods, then you will be challenged by Customs. Remember that counterfeit goods may be seized by Customs officers in China or your home country. You may also be fined or arrested for possession of counterfeit goods, especially in large quantities.

Question by Braniac

I’m doing a bit of ad-hoc research, and was wondering what the most popular luxury watch brands in different countries were.

I read a report that said Rolex and Tag Heuer were at the top for the USA.

Does anyone know what the top 5 are in places like Britain, Hong Kong, Southeast Asia etc?

Thanks

Question by Kiwi

I don’t mean a $ 10,000.00 type watch. I mean one that a “regular” person could get, maybe by saving up or using a credit card.

Tag Heuer?
Movado?
Bulova?
Any others?

I have a Bulova and I like it, but my “dream” watch is a Movado. What about you?
Black Barbie – I totally agree with you.

Best answer:

Answer by Agent 47
If you want good looking but inexpensive, go for a Swiss Army. Really nice looking watches.

If you want more pricey, go for the Bulova.

One of the most fun events I visited in 2010 was the SalonQP in London (report can be found here). This year, the SalonQP event will be held on the 10th (VIP evening), 11th and 12th of November 2011. Unfortunately, I can’t make it this year, but don’t let this stop you from visiting this great event organized by QP Magazine.

The list of brands / exhibitors goes on and on, so there will be enough to see in the Saatchi Gallery in London.

To give you an idea: A. Lange & Söhne, Bell & Ross, Bremont, Bulgari, Bulova, Cartier, Chronoswiss, Corum, Daniels London, Frédérique Constant, Girard-Perregaux, Graham, Harry Winston, Hermès, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Maurice Lacroix, Meccaniche Veloci, Montblanc, Nomos Glashütte, Panerai, Piaget, Roger Dubuis, Roger Smith, TAG Heuer, U-Boat, Vacheron Constantin, Zenith and more…

Besides the brand’s exhibitions, there is also an interesting programme for visitors. What to think about a Jaeger-LeCoultre watchmaking masterclass? The introduction of the MB&F Horological Machine No.5? A presentation of Roger Smith’s completed Daniels’ Co-Axial  35th Anniversary Wristwatch?

For visitors, there will also be a possibility to get their own watches serviced and repaired by some of the best watchmakers around. A special expert service & repair stand will be in the Saatchi Gallery during the SalonQP event. A great initiative!

More information on tickets, adress and opening times can be found here: http://www.salonqp.com/visitor-info/
