How did he loose his AD status?

Story is just not believable, period. Sorry, but Federal Law
Enforcement is often the butt of jokes by locals for
their......exaggeration of claims. In this instance, enough parts to
fabricate 1,000,000 watches? I call BS. Does anyone have any idea how
much space 1,000,000 CASES would take up?

I have no question that the guy was making fakes. But the claims are, literally, unbelievable by the Feds.

Well, as far as space at his house goes, we really don't know how large his home is...

Precisely. There's an old joke among local law enforcement folks I know, I'll try to do it justice.

There was a competition for law enforcement dogs held by a local agency. They opened it up to all the agencies in the region. In one round there were three dogs going up against each other in a timed search for drugs. The first dog, from the local Sheriffs office, went out into the mock up and ran around sniffing, searching, and in 1 minute came back with a large back of marijuana. The second dog, from the local Police department, was up next. He got his signal, ran around the mock up, sniffed, and in 45 seconds came back with a bigger bag of marijuana. The last dog, from the local FBI office, was up next. he got his signal, ran over to the other two dogs finds, grabed them, ran over to his handler, and set them down in front of him. 2x the finds in 1/2 the time. Go Feds.

. . . there have been a number of these articles as of late. Some are about fakes overseas being destroyed. Same steamroller demo method. Seems more like a concerted ad campaign against fakes. I think there has been some exageration going on, stressing the point . . .
