Traveling to Hong Kong and watch shopping?

I am wondering, I am going to travel to Hong Kong soon. If I am going to get something like a Tudor / JLC / IWC from AD, any import tax bring them with me coming back to the State?

What kind of discount if any is available?

Any AD recommendation?

Import tax is dependent on your customs declarations.

I haven't been since COVID, but I expect any AD / Boutique will be as barren, if not worse, than ones in NYC, LAX, SIN, TYO, etc. Suggest you check out the various vintage shops instead.

Uptickwatchreviews channel on YouTube. He has plenty of videos showing exactly where to go.

I was in HK in May. Went to the usual places Mongkok, Tsim Tsa Tsiu, Jordan, etc., Most shops are heavily Rolex orientated but there a few left field shops to be found.
