QUOTE(yonggoh @ Feb 16 2012, 02:45 PM) unwanted V-Day gift?? teh girl must be very sad... thanks for detailed explanations bro... Added on February 16, 2012, 2:54 pm Its a simple process. At the shop that you purchase the item from... inform the cashier that you are a foreigner and will require a GST refund. They will fill in a little form in which u must fill in your particulars such as name, country, passport, expected date of departure etc (this form looks like a receipt kinda thing) which you must later present together with the 1) actual item receipt 2) item purchased 3) passport and other travel documentations such as boarding pass. You may not have to have your passprt and boarding pass with you at this time...you can fill in all that stuff later Two things to bear in mind. If you are HAND CARRYING the said item then the entire GST refund process will be done AFTER your the check in counter. You simply head to the GST refund counter in which some officers that may/may not inspect your items (usually they just have a look at it for like 2 seconds) and they chop the GST Refund Slip and guide you to a cashier area to claim back your money. They tend to be quite laxed about this... they just saw my new rolex for like 2 seconds. Could've been any other watch in truth and they didnt bother with the rest of my purchases like shoes, clothes, belt, jewellery etc... If you are CHECKING IN the said item then all this has to be done before you check in. same process except that they will chop your GST refund slip for you to claim INSIDE the same counter after you normally check in... Smart singapore government want us to spend our last SGD inside their terminal   what about preowned pieces....? i supposed as long as shop has the GST form its possible to claim? |

QUOTE(benchang82 @ Feb 19 2012, 06:03 PM) Need to enquire how much to change the strap to metal bracelet. The original strap has worn out. Any idea where to change it? Thanks thats a beater!don't think Louis Erard make Steel band, depending on the lug size u may find it with 3rd brand. U could buy it online and change it yourself or walk into a watchmaker to get them done (depending on where u are located). |

QUOTE(nando @ Feb 19 2012, 09:41 PM) thanks for detailed explanations bro... not too sure on buying pre owned pieces... but if buying from a shop then i believe it is possible to claim GST under the gross margin scheme.what about preowned pieces....? i supposed as long as shop has the GST form its possible to claim? even if the store owner purchases the time piece from previous owner (ie non GST registered person) and then sells the item to you...it should still be entitled to GST refund i know for certain that PRIVATE transactions are not claimable together with goods sold within a Zero GST warehouse and free trade zone.

These RXW prices went up by a good (39k yen to 60k yen) US$150 or ~rm$500! looks like they are popular or new stock just came in. The GMT is available now with 8 remainding.
