Still curious.

Before this thread, I'd never heard of it.

"Fake Rolex" however, is definitely a brand in it's own right.

Mrs Trev won't. And the ones you show there are not the ones you typically see on the streets of Switzerland. But if you want classy, here you are:

If the WW2 history of this bag-producer worries you, I sure hope you don't drive a Mercedes-Benz...

Or take Aspirin, or drink fanta, or drink ammonia

Or drive a Porsche or a BMW. You also shouldn't use products from ThyssenKrupp or hold shares in IG paint. Boss clothes are also a no-no... about 2500 companies, quite a few of which are still around used forced labour in WWII.

Conspicuously missing a list of Swiss companies there.

The Vuitton family is French. Pah... what can one expect? Cheese eating surrender monkeys!

But I just bought a suit....

Yeah, not to mention G.M.....

Including some American corporations who had branches or susbsidiaries in Germany at the time. IBM and GM are two companies that benefitted from slave labour.

Most of big companies are doing it... If we go totally ethic, we will have not much in our wardrobe and home. And everything would be produce locally...

Hmm...seems like expensive brands just make one's life difficult, even if we are not the ones who buy into them and happen to just receive it. I could care less for brands, unless it's something that makes noise. It's too hard to counterfeit quality sound, and if somebody actually manages it, then they deserve my cash . Brand name purses, shoes and so? I prefer the original look, rather than a brand name. It's pretty neanderthal of me, I guess...

That's why all my bikes are Guzzis or Ducatis!

Tom

I didnt even know i have one!!

so i guess you have a friend less by now.

Maybe I just look that awesome, but considering where I fly from and the fact that I'm brown, I think they should've always stopped me.....I've been in and out of Zurich quite a few times but never stopped even once (hope saying this doesn't jinx it).

For the record: I as a white guy get far more often controlled in Asia than my Asian wife here. I think they suspect me to bring too much alcohol with me... or chewing gum.

Yeah I think they check for Alcohol... and well they check everyone... its not just you! trust me..... while I've never got controlled here or in the UK, I always get checked when I'm leaving my hometown... up to the extent of removing every single item from my bags and poking through my shoes with sharp items and then tasting it :P lol I think I'm going to put some nasty stuff in there next time!

I thought Maybach made the engines fitted to the Tiger I ?

I'd like to see them confiscate this...

Well, perhaps you broke the Nike rule of having no more than two swooshes about you at any one time. Three LV bags is a bit obvious.
