For those that read Spanish, Here is an article about the exhibition from a Nicaraguan newspaper. http://www.laprensa.com.ni/archivo/2007/oc...ta/219438.shtml Here is an article in English http://arts.guardian.co.uk/art/news/story/0,,2269320,00.html

Yeah, I wasn't into reps the last time I was in China either, so I wasn't really looking for them. Just aware that they were there. I bought a couple (Very!) cheap His and Her Omega Constellations last time I was there for 40RMB, in Yu Yuan Garden shops downtown, but that was the extent of my experience buying reps in Shanghai. In fact, I found this forum while preparing for my trip to Shanghai in April. I was trying to educate myself about reps before I went. I'm glad I found it. Its been fascinating reading all of the information posted on these boards. Enjoy your trip, and I look forward to hearing your report!

Chuan, If you do go please post your experience. I'm heading back in late April and this time I was intending to go check out the quality there. I'm curious to see what they have there now. I used to enjoy the Xiangyang market that used to be on the other side of the river. Unfortunately that was shut down back in '06 I believe.

Its not really near the Airport. Its on the number 2 line of the subway. Its basically an underground shopping area in the subway station (Science & Technology stop). They merchants are usually rather proactive to try to get you into their shop. Its sort of like an underground NYC Canal Street. They have a lot of bags on display, but the watches were not really out in the open from what I could see. Many are kept hidden away I believe. And, like I said before, I'm not sure if they will have the higher quality reps there or not.

I was there in September of last year and there was a good sized market in the Science and Technology Museum Subway station in Pudong. The shops are all underground and you don't have to leave the subway station to get there. I believe this has replaced Xiangyang market which was closed down. I honestly didn't look at any of the watches there so I can't attest to the quality. There were numerous merchants shouting "Hello Rolex" to me as I passed through however. When I go back in April I plan to stop there and check it out.
