            The watch shop owner was also very patient to explain the functionalities of the watch in detail. In addition, he also threw in a free Patek Philippe umbrella.

            The service at the shop is much better at Bucherer at Lucerne where the sales people are snobbish and are rather rude. Please PM for the address of the shop if any of the bros are interested. Cheers!

              6500 SWISS by credit card or cash?

              BTW how much discount able to get from shop? How much VAT rebate %? How to get back the VAT rebate, claim from airport?

              It is really a good deal you have. Enjoy the watch

                  I think any GMT owner is able to tell that......

                  What I meant :
                  Look at yr watch again when it is on the hour.... does your GMT Green hand point exacltly on the hour too?? To me it is out.... Mine was out too when I bought it last year...

                    hmnn thought the green hand should be on the hour (10 on the bezel)when the time is...say 10 o'clock in the morning (assuming the green hand is set to local time as well)?

                        Nope it does not. The GMT green hand will slowly move to the next hour as the minute hand approaches the next hour. Is that normal or abnormal?

                        Are you saying that the GMT hand should point exactly on the hour as the minute hand approaches 60 min?

                          In Switzerland, the shops will exclude the VATS on the spot and charge you the duty free price. The VATS refund is 7% in Switzerland and 15% in Italy.

                          However, the VAT refund is not given on the spot in Italy. The VAT refund has to be claimed at the airport or selected VAT refund counters in Italy. The refund in Italy can be credited to your credit card or you can request cash. Please note that if you request for the tax refund in cash, the is a 3% administrative charge being levied. e.g. 15%-3%=12% Tax refund in cash.

                          Hope that answers your question.
