Well, I've been wanting to buy a nice watch, but I don't have the money for anything high end...

I'll check it out just the same. Thanks for the heads up.

My father-in-law had a heart attack while in China ... they evac'ed him to Hong Kong and he received excellent medical care there.

I've never been but I've heard the night market on Temple Street is something you don't want to miss.

Depends on what you like to do when you visit someplace? Sight seeing, shopping?

For sight seeing you should hit the islands all around Hong Kong like Lantau Island and Kowloon for better old world type shopping. Hong Kong proper, to me, was just one giant mall.
