Are Replica Watches Legal?
I get asked this question alot….
Is it legal if I buy a replica watch off of a website?
The answer to that is -Yes and No…I just read an article in the paper the other day about a guy going over to china and he tried to bring back 8 replica Rolexes in his carry on luggage.
Long story short, Rolex fined him for an undisclosed amount of money.
With that said, the best way to protect yourself is just to buy them off of a reputable website. The stupidest thing you could do is to go overseas and act like you know what you’re doing.
Technically, it is illegal to have a crate of replicas shipped over to you, and then try to open up a store on 5th avenue in hopes to sell them. You will get yourself in a world of hurt by doing that.
But, you have nothing to worry about when you go and purchase one from a website that has proven themselves in the industry. I know, all of us replica watch enthusiasts wish we could just walk into a store like Wal-Mart and purchase a replica watch…I guess that tells us there is a price to true luxury!
Cheers!
