    If McDonalds and the coffee shop are anything to go by I'd say no LOL. In saying that some very very nice shops on the first floor level. Prices seemed reasonable taking account of the exchange rate. Since they are outside the EU be careful of customs on your return.

    I fly through Zürich airport fairly regularly. There is lots to look at but the strength of the Swiss franc is likely to negate any chances of a bargain. Also the range of brands is fairly mainstream - if you want something a little more unusual then you'll have to take the train into town and lick the windows in Bahnhofstrasse. I don't know how long you've got but if you have 4-5 hours then this trip is easily doable.

    When I first traveled to Switzerland the CHF-GBP exchange rate was 2.2 which was quite acceptable. Now that it's around 1.5 it just isn't.

    I imagine you would find all the mainstream Swiss brands there, it would be a shame on them if you cold only see designer watches...
