CBP在路易斯维尔查获591只假冒爱彼表：正品估值逾8500万美元
美国海关与边境保护局（CBP）公布，肯塔基州路易斯维尔市的路易斯维尔口岸官员10月30日截获一批自香港发往德州一处住宅的货件，查获591只冒用爱彼（Audemars Piguet）商标的手表。CBP的贸易专家机构「卓越与专业中心」鉴定该批手表为假冒产品，已因侵犯注册商标被查扣；若为真品，这批手表的厂商建议零售价合计将超过8500万美元。路易斯维尔口岸是美国主要空运货运口岸之一。
这是该口岸一周内查获的第二批同类货件。10月23日，同一口岸曾截获460只假冒爱彼表，正品估值逾6600万美元。
路易斯维尔口岸主任Philip Onken表示，这批假表表面上看没有任何真实价值，但一旦到达预定收件人手中，就可能被用来欺骗买家；他呼吁消费者只从可信的零售商处购买商品，以免因买到假货蒙受损失。
CBP表示，自今年5月以来，路易斯维尔口岸官员已查获五批大型假冒珠宝与手表货件，连同10月30日这批在内，涉案货值合计达2.85亿美元，这一数字不包括毒品等其他违禁品的查获。CBP同时指出，假冒商品是一个全球性问题：2025财年，该局知识产权类查获中近九成源自中国与香港。
CBP表示，购买假货会分流正牌企业的收入，长远造成利润与美国就业岗位的流失；消费者可从标签剥落、印刷粗糙、包装简陋、走线不匀、尺寸不准等迹象辨别假冒产品，该局的知识产权执法旨在在边境一线保护美国企业免受不公平竞争与品牌滥用。

CBP Seizes 591 Counterfeit Audemars Piguet Watches in Louisville Worth Over $85 Million if Genuine
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) announced that officers at the Port of Louisville in Louisville, Kentucky, stopped a shipment on Oct. 30 that had arrived from Hong Kong en route to a residence in Texas, seizing 591 watches bearing Audemars Piguet trademarks. CBP's Centers of Excellence and Expertise, the agency's trade experts, determined the watches were counterfeit, and they were seized for infringing registered and recorded trademarks. Had the watches been genuine, the shipment would have had a combined manufacturer's suggested retail price of more than $85 million. The Port of Louisville is one of the nation's major air cargo ports.
It was the second such interception at the port in a week. On Oct. 23, officers at the same port stopped a shipment of 460 counterfeit Audemars Piguet watches that would have been worth more than $66 million if genuine.
Louisville Port Director Philip Onken said the watches have no real value on their face, but could be used to deceive buyers if they reached the intended recipient. He urged consumers to buy only from trusted retailers to avoid losing money to fake goods.
CBP said that since May, its Louisville officers have seized five large shipments of counterfeit jewelry and watches, and that including the Oct. 30 case, the total value reaches $285 million, excluding separate seizures of narcotics and other prohibited goods. The agency added that counterfeiting is a global problem, with nearly 90 percent of its intellectual property rights seizures in fiscal year 2025 originating from China and Hong Kong.
CBP said counterfeit purchases hurt legitimate companies by diverting revenue and, over time, contribute to lost profits and U.S. jobs. Consumers can often spot counterfeit products through signs such as peeling labels, poor printing, weak packaging, uneven stitching and incorrect sizing, the agency said, adding that its intellectual property enforcement program is designed to protect American businesses at the border from unfair competition and misuse of their brands.
