Most stores do not charge extra percentage when using credit cards here, but for store who do not normally use credit cards as payment option will charge extra percentage to cover handling fee they must pay to credit card company

Some stores also offer discount price off regular price if you pay in cash, though it doen't work for major department stores and ADs.  As Stephen said Japan is a cash society

Do they still charge an extra percentage for credit card usage in Japan? Platinum is a very noble metal; as Louis XV called it the metal for Kings. Beautiful watches, and yes indeed, they are fit for a King.

Great watches, at first sight I thought it was a wrist shot, the watch being worn the "Agnelli way" above the shirt. Cheers Luc

Grazie Luc!
