What to expect from Customs when bringing back a $5,000 watch?
[Apologies if this is the wrong forum. If so, mods, please move.]

Travel companion wants to buy a Cartier watch while in Europe. All will be in order. Everything will be declared.

Based upon your recent experience, how likely is Customs to charge duty on this watch? If they do, what is the rate?
