How many days in HK do you need to get a quality suit in HK? Is 5 or 6 days too little?

That sounds right but check with the tailor you're using.

WW Chan's standard turnaround time is 7-10 days. But with their workshop busy as it is these days, you're looking at more.

The smaller tailors (Lee Barron, etc) might be able to do 5 days.

Generally, I wouldn't trust any of those 24/48 hour tailors.
