I have worked in a several Copyright Infringement cases in the past. Nothing good ever come out of owning a replica watche.
Seriously, If I see you wearing a replica, automatically you lose my respect. Period. It's a integerity and suitablility issue for me. You can give me thousands of execuses, they are illegal, period. Those people sell them because consumers continue to buy them. Once again, it doesn't matter how you justify it, still a federal violation.
You guys are smart enough to know all types of movements out there. I have learned so much from you guys. You serious need to buy a replica to see its movement or modify it?
I'm going to go rob a bank, just to see how the police would respond to a bank robbery. I'm pretty sure the police would let me go when I told them my reason.
Don't buy replica watches.
You certainly are entitled to your opinion... but I have a guess that you would have to lose a lot of respect to MANY in the watch community if ever owning a rep was the criteria.. I think many WIS have owned one at some point in their hobby... btw, if you read the US Customs site, I think you will also find some interesting inclusion material on "grey market" items as well.. also I don't currently own a replica watch, so I guess you can still respect me.
