well... Modded versions of gen watches are fine... Homage are fine... Replicas, honestly, its a complete disrespect to those watch manufacturers who spend many hundreds of work hours assembling these works of arts.

Its a form of Murder.

more accurately, theft of ip and earnings.

in any case to each his own. just be sure that you are knowledgeable of local laws regarding selling faked goods. the authorities don't usually enforce, until a formal complaint goes in. under all the economic treaties with the US/Europe they will be forced to act.

It is illegal to sell replicas of (i.e. counterfeit) trademarked products in Singapore.

Counterfeiting a trademark is a criminal offence punishable by a fine not exceeding $100,000, or to a jail term not exceeding 5 years, or to both. Offenders found guilty of selling counterfeit products are also liable for the same punishment, pursuant to section 49 of the Trade Marks Act.

In addition, section 31 of the Trade Marks Act allows the proprietor of the trademark to sue the infringer for compensation. The infringer may also be compelled to turn over the ill-gotten profits to the proprietor.

Lastly, trying to pass off your own products or services as those of another is also an offence under the civil law. The elements of the offence of passing off are met when:

You misrepresent your product/service by making it extremely similar to that of another;
This misrepresentation is targeted at your customers;
The misrepresentation was done with the intention of harming the business of the competitor whose product/service you are imitating; and
Your actions do in fact cause or threaten to cause harm to his business.
