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
