Buy a watch in Switzerland

“I bought this watch on a vacation to the German speaking countries with my German class. I missed the opportunity to buy a watch on my first day in Switzerland and luckily found a watch shop on the last day there. I felt the need to get a souvenir that could match the views I saw hiking in the alps. Overall I’m very happy with the watch, blue being my favorite color and I really like the diver watch style.”

“Was just in Switzerland and looked at a lot of watches. I think best reason to buy a watch there is supply. They might actually have a stainless steel Rolex at the lower end of the range in stock. Very difficult to find in US. Prices didn’t seem all that much lower to me, though you have to run the numbers on the VAT and the duty which I would think you should pay on a high priced watch. [...] Should not be an impulse buy but honestly all those watches in thoseLED lit cases are dazzling and seductive. Even the cheesy watches look fabulous.”
