Thanks for the info.

I am wondering aloud here:

1. Does it mean that such watches (Naples Watch's MM) are considered illegal to be sold? Can someone still buy other MMs not made by Naples Watch?

2. If I buy or trade the abovementioned watches in the online forum and if O.P. Singapore wants to pursue, am I liable?

3. Will SG-ROC release my details to the authorities?

1. if the defendant concedes, then they must stop production and sale of the said watches. if the court rules in favour of the plaintiff, then defendent must stop production and sale of said watches.

richemont might go after other MM watche manufacturers, we shall see.....

2. if richemont decides to take action against any traders, then it's a civil case. they might or may not take action against a buyer or someone in possession of these watches for private consumption.

3. if the authorities "request" for information, we are obligated to do so. but we dont have much info to offer in the first place, perhaps IP address

This will make hommage watches more collectibles !!! Good for those who collect many hommage luminor. Maybe now will be more desirable!

not likely as i think veryrichmont only interested in the traders/ sellers and not the individual owner... but then...there is also the Odex case...
