based on regional interest Hong Kong is #1 and the US 10, which isn't the surprising...

1. Hong Kong
2. Italy
3. Singapore
4. Greece
5. Switzerland
6. Iraq
7. Lebanon
8. United Kingdom
9. United Arab Emirates
10. United States

interesting to see Iraq is #6, i guess that is the volume of overseas contractors pulling in tax free cash, wanting to spend some on Rolex...

Awesome link! Not sure what the relation to actual sales is though... Let's not forget that Google's market share in one of the biggest markets in the world - China - is very small, so although a very intreresting reference I wouldn't go as far as saying this is representative for world population.

Still a great question and link!


Edit: a lot of google china traffic is routed to HK - this partially explains position #1 imho
