    You shouldn't have to. Germany and Ireland are in Europe and there is a trade agreement between the countries. Duty will have been paid in Germany (if it's due), and you will pay the German rate of VAT on the watch to the German supplier upon purchasing

    check if you are buying from Germany or from China with a German intermediary.

    Nope. Germany is in the EU.
