I have visited Hong Kong, Asia’s world city, in 2005 to attend the 6th ministerial conference of the World Trade Organization (WTO). Oh, just for inform, I was not a minister. I am just a journalist and my office assigned me to cover the event. It was a great experience. HK international airport, every street of Hong Kong and kowloon, the Victoria harbor, kowloon park, Metro rail, HK conference and exhibition center and everything is really fantastic.

I think that every modern city has some special representation and for Hong Kong ‘copy watch’. The approaching of copy watch was a great experience to me. It is not possible, especially for a western visitor, to walk in Tsim sa Tsui or Mongkok without any offering a suit or a copy watch. If you go to a market or walk in front of any busy streets ‘Copy Watch? Copy Watch. Copy Watch’ shouts must turn your attention.

First time I didn’t understand and ask to a Bangladeshi, who is also a representative of copy watch seller. He told that the meaning of copy watch is duplicate or replica of world-famous brand wristwatch. Hong Kong is the best place to get a copy watch. Anybody can buy a brand watch for $200-$5oo. You need to pay $10,000 for the original. So a large number of European or American come Hong Kong to buy a copy of Cartier, Rolex, Mercier, Tag Heuer, GMT Breitling etc.
