HK is cheaper!

I leave in Hong Kong and can tell you that watch are super cheap here. Most of the retailer will bring the official price down to XX% some even go to XX%.
By exemple a master geographic with stainless steel bracelet that cost HK$XXXXXX can be found at HK$XXXXXX (US$1=HK$7.8)
I doubt Singapore will get cheaper than that.

Singapore only has 5% GST. I think that Singapore is one of the cheapest places to get watches. Maybe other people can correct me, but in my opinion, Singapore would be cheaper.

Dear All, Malaysia have neither GST nor import duties on watches, won't it be cheaper to buy watches there? Opinions welcomed! Thanks! John

Pricing is very close...

between Singapore and Malaysia, but I think Malaysia would have slightly lower prices. I'd venture the difference is only 1-2%.

I second that
