Fakes... A Ethical Question.

Throughout recent history people have utilised counterfeit copies of valuable jewellery items as decoys.

Whether it was to wear whilst keeping the original safe or as a decoy piece to fool thieves copies were made with paste diamonds to substitute for the real item.

This brings me to the question.

What are your thoughts on owing a replica copy of an expensive watch to serve this purpose?

your thoughts......
