Yesterday, afternoon as I was going through the repair price book. I decided to take measures in limiting the amount of counterfeit watches being repaired at my store,by increasing the price of battery and bracelet link adjustment. The new price of a battery for all fake watches are: $40 Bracelet link removal: $25 It takes 20-30 minutes ea. to work on these worthless products and it's a waste of time putting together bracelet links that don't match,especially on counterfeit Breitling Bentley watches. Cheers, Simon

I wish to thank everyone who have responded positively on this post. Fact: Counterfeit watches fuels Human Trafficking, money laundering and losses of trade revenue as much as 7% to various governments. People who buy counterfeit items need to be aware of the fact that this practice is illegal. Taking Action: Legitimate watch companies spend millions of Euros and Dollars on Research and Development on patents,trademarks and movement design. Buying counterfeit watches is stealing. We as consumers,must ensure that these patents, trademarks and watch movements are protected by buying genuine watches. Update: The president of the company that I work for has agreed to my recommendations in eliminating the amount of counterfeit watches that enter the premises. And has supported the idea of a price increase on the repairs on such items. Cheers, Simon
