Yes, gold watches, including luxury timepieces like an Omega replica or watches with studded diamonds, are typically considered capital assets under the Income Tax Act. When such items are sold, any profit made may be subject to capital gains tax, unless they fall under specific exemptions or are treated as personal effects not covered by the definition. It’s always a good idea to consult a tax professional for guidance on your specific situation.
