There's many excellent deals and dealers in HK You should be cautious buying preowned anywhere. HONG KONG Ken’s Watches www.kenwatches.com - 3 locations (see website), pretty good selection, fair pricing. Pak Lee Watches – 4(?) Middle Rd, TST, Kowloon, Good selection, prices fair. Noble Watch, Sino Centre, 582 Nathan Rd Mong Kok (Recommended – this is where I found my 14060M “Y” series for 2,900 USD in near mint condition. This little mall has several stores that looked good with great prices (w/haggling)). Unknown Name – store just around the corner from Sino Ctr. -40ish Dundas St. Some nice stock, little pricey. Kings Watches, 366 Portland, Mong Kok, Kowloon Po Wan Lai Watches, Causeway Bay http://www.powanloiwatch.com.hk/productlist.php?id=3 Chuen Fat Watch and Jewellery, Jardine Street, Causeway Bay Union Watch, Kimberley Rd. in the Champagne Court. Tse’s Collection – 4 Ichang St, TST, Kowloon, Small collection, fair price. Unknown Name – store just around the corner from Sino Ctr. -40ish Dundas St. Some nice stock, little pricey. Unknown - Small shops in little mall 19? Kimberley Rd , Kowloon... this might be Champagne Mall mentioned above. Little stock, pricey www.kwaiyanwatch.com 688 Nathan rd, Mong Kok, Kowloon MACAU There’s about 30 shops, just east of the old Lisboa Casino and few more across from the Star World. Prices similar to HK. Figure on a 15% discount from the label. Not that many steel diver Sub types there – tons of glitzy, gold, diamond-studded bling stuff if that’s what you’re after. Macau is bigger than Vegas (in $ gambled) and I guess there's lots of rich Mainlander who didn't do well at the tables. |

Milgauss White (pre-owned) - around HK$34K - 35K, (balance-trade imported brand new) - HK$37K.
Milgauss GV (Brand New) - very firmed with listed price which is HK$48600. Except Ken and Powanloi, you may consider "Kuen Kee" and "Kwai Yan". www.kkwatch.com www.kwaiyanwatch.com Hope this help. |

Just been to HK. Prices are high and even when pushed the discount is around about 5 to 10% at most vintage or new, even taking into the exchange rate $US or UKŁ. Good range of dealers in the TST area on the Nathan Rd with nice watches. Buying in the US$ looks more favourable.

I think maybe you went to the wrong shops, or maybe you looking rich and did not need the discount...lol (Just kidding no offence)
Even anyone off the street walks into the AD the discount for Sub LV is already 8% off List. If you have good relationship with the AD definetly more discount. Desmond Quote:

Hi all,
To my experiences, USA, Japan, HKG, KL(Malaysia), Bangkok and Singapore are best places to buy a Rolex-whether it's a brand new or pre-owned. However, we should watch out the exchange rate from time to time to get the best final price based on USD) |

Try, singapore if you are in the new market they have no taxes, you have to wear it home so you dont pay import tax, they also have a very extensive second hand market their regards

If you can get one at a good price; nothing will stop you from buying it in HK.

You'd be very lucky if you can find one in stock in hk. I've been looking for 5 months and not seen one in an AD yet. I have heard about them being available but these models sell very quickly.

Yeah, I did ask at an independent AD who is still withholding one priced 10% above msrp. The larger chain stores will never do this so it's all down to how lucky you are finding one. Most won't specifically order one on your behalf either.

Question - does the 2-8% also depend on cash? I understand there's no issues with availability with SubCs in HK, so presumably you can just wander from AD to AD until you get the right price, assuming you have the time and patience. Also, what's iwatch365? I found a chinese language website iwatch365.net?? |

Not sure about DSSD in HK but the sub C is on high demand especially the LV already above MSRP will cost you $64,000.00 + ...
better choice is get it here from David SW or other sellers here. |

Great Forum
Hello everyone and greetings from Austria!
Thanks for the much information i received from this forum. Going to HK next month i have a simple (silly?) question: What payment method is usual purchasing a 100k HKD watch? Credit Card or cash? I would feel a little bit unsafe carring so much many money with me.... regards Martin |
