New here, and sorry for my newbiness. I have always wondered if the FAKE watches being sold around are technically illegal, or not. As it seems this would violate some sort of infringement & copyright. I never understood why they were counterfeited on such mass scales.

They are illegal, and directly fund organised crime. However, TRF is not the place for the discussion of fakes, I expect this thread will be closed shortly

I have read articles that confirm that by purchasing a fake, you are supporting some of the biggest scumbags in the world. People think it's harmless to buy a fake, they have no idea who's pockets they are putting money into, pure ignorance.

Remember, everytime you're flipping through channels and see T and a Half Men on the screen you are directly funding the prostitution and cocaine industries lol.
