In markets around Peshawar, you’ll find replica or “first/master copy” watches being sold by various street vendors — these are imitations of branded watches that are not authentic and don’t come with official brand warranty.

📍 Where Replicas Are Commonly Sold

These types of watches are typically available at:

• Karkhano Market — many stalls sell replica watches at lower prices.
• Khyber Bazar & Qissa Khwani Bazaar — street vendors and small shops carrying copies.
• Saddar Road market stalls — informal sellers with variety of replica designs.

These places often have a wide range of replicated models imitating luxury brands (Rolex, Audemars Piguet, Hublot, etc.) and everyday brands (Casio, Seiko). Because these items aren’t official products, quality, durability, and accuracy can vary a lot.

🛍️ What About Iftikhar Optico?

Iftikhar Optico in Peshawar is not a replica watch seller — they are known for selling original branded watches (such as Casio, Citizen, Seiko, Tissot, etc.) with authentic packaging and warranty. If high quality and genuine products matter to you, this is the place locals trust for real watches:

📍 Saddar / Cantonment Branch
• Saddar Road, opposite Takhtu Masjid, Peshawar Cantonment, Peshawar – 25000
📞 +92 91 5279893

📍 University Road / University Town Branch
• Near Shaheen Chemist, University Road, Peshawar – 25000
📞 0333 5279793

They focus on original watches and optical products, not replicas, so if you want authentic pieces with warranty and service, that’s where to go.

💡 Tips Before Buying Replicas

✔️ No official brand warranty — replicas are not covered by the original manufacturer.
✔️ Quality varies widely — two copies of the same model can feel very different.
✔️ Price isn’t always a good quality indicator — cheap doesn’t mean reliable.
