NY Traveler Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 Hello Everyone, I had been reading the old forum for quite some time and recently found out about the move. I am a big lover of replica watches but the problem is that shippments to my home country would pose a serious problem. Although the probability of a seizure at the customs is still somewhat low, I would have big issues (due to the nature of my job) if something of that sort should occur. Right now I am in New York for a work related assignment and will stay here for another 1-2 weeks depending on how things go. Since I had earlier read that, in addition to all the junk, there were also some high quality replicas in Chinatown, I request that those who can lead me in the right direction send a PM for further information (or post if the info is not of sensitive nature). Now please do not flame the hell out of me by saying that Chinatown stuff is crap and a total waste of money. I know that the ones for sale on the street are absolute garbage. But having read (on the old board, but cannot find that post) that there were also higher quality -even swiss movement- reps in and around Chinatown, I just wanted to explore that opportunity. Best, NY Traveler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swdivad Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 Good luck!... You would be lucky to find anything worthwhile ther, but nothing's impossible You could always order something from one of the dealers here while you're in NYC, and then smuggle them into Switzerland when you go back Shipping can be quick.

Jetsons Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 (edited) As a suggestion, you can order from one of our trusted dealers and have it delivered to your NYC address as you will be here for a sufficient amount of time. Some of these dealers offer super fast shipping. EL & River come to mind. I'm in NYC but farnkly, it's just not worth the effort for me to locate the quality reps in that sea of humanity. I was there yesterday and while interesting and fun to shop, our dealers simply offer much bettter quality. Enjoy your visit!

jraines87 Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 Kinda the same advice here too... order from River today and it'll probably be in your room on Monday... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glitch Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 or.... buy from the multiple posted items here that's already in CONUS. Then you'll get it there by next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwai02 Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 Don't waste your time in chinatown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
statikman Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 I was there last month and it was laughable. You honestly won't find a single decent watch unless you work very hard at it and know your stuff, and if you do find something really good, you will definitely over pay.
