Watch(es) to buy before GST hit
« on: August 31, 2014, 08:44:12 PM »
Hi guys,

I believe GST will have an impact on watch prices after its implementation in April next year.
While the impact may not be a full 6%, there will be an impact.

So, I have decided to buy a Omega. In fact, I have already bought one, on its way from Japan now.  :D

How about you? Do you plan to buy 1/2/3/4 watch(es) before GST?
If yes, which one?

Hit the high priced ones first. That's where the GST will bite the most. Extra 7k for every 100k list price....

Prices at ADs are subject to GST. When you sell your watch, what you paid for GST is not taken into account.
