Watch was supposed to be auctioned at some charity event, and therefore likely stay in the EU. Some of the articles seem pretty confused about the regulations.

The point is that he was bring the watch into the country to be sold (auctioned), therefore it is an import and needs to be treated like any other import.

A caution to many of us who travel outside our country with watches to watch shows or auctions with wares to sell/trade.
