Have no idea on prices but as of now, HK is still tax free.

don't think it's any cheaper due to it's popularity in HKG and China. I think HKG even has 2 or 3 boutiques.

as for tax refund. zero. you don't pay any tax in the first place. HKG has no GST or VAT

So far haven't got good prices from hk....or maybe cos not regular or vip.

not sure too. But will be going in July and update the forum again. One thing I saw in their forum they have lots of limited edition with their dealers

Some brands like IWC and Bell&Ross are more expensive in HK than in Changi Airport duty free.

Heard from AD in Italy they ship free to HK with very high VAT refund due to HK tax free status. May want to Order n ship to HK if u're there for some time.

In general, price in HK is cheaper than Singapore because of no import tax and GST.
Listed price for PAM372 is HK$75000 and PAM422 is HK$79800.
PAM Boutique in HK Central and Canton Road have no discount but more choices.
You can also try The Panerai Boutique at Times Square run by AD Elegant Watch. They offer 5-10% discount depends on the popularity of the model.

I tot 372 and 422 same RP? At least in SG they are...

Both my 351 & 389 were bought from HK, through my colleague there. I do get quite a bit of a discount upfront and when the watches are being paid, I get an additional 2% off.

In SG, my 351 was retailing for S$11.2k and my 389 was S$13.4k. When I got them from HK, my 351 cost me S$9.6k and my 389 was S$12.6k. Quite a substantial saving, to me that is.

As my colleague is a family friend too, I try not to impose on him too much. So I do apologise in advance if I am unable to assist any one here.

bro, the savings can be used to stock up on straps

Haha! You don't say! Straps are poisonous! Just ordered another 2 more. Hope to post up photos in my thread once I received them

422 is 500 euro more expansive than 372.
Not sure about the price difference in SG, but should not be same price.

Both are same RP a couple of months back when I last check. Hmm... perhaps price already increased for 422?
