Over in Kuta there are lots of venues on where to shop. There is a place there on where the shopping is like an Italy set up. Lots of shops and stuff that you mentioned. You will find lots of surfing brands such as billabong and quicksilver. Most of those items are discounted at such good prices.
Im Indonesian myself.
Yes Kuta is nice to shop. You can get there what you want the orginal but also the fake ones. But remember Kuta is very touristic. The prices will be higher then you try some where else in Bali.

glasses? try to get it for not more then 100.000 rupia (on the streets)
watches? same not more then that. They will say good fake or orginal etc. not more then 100.000.

oh yes: example i bought soccer shirts in Bali (fake) for 5euro a piece. So thats i think 45.000 rupia
The stuffs are everywhere at the tourism. The sellers search and come to you even when you don't want it.. haha... price? It's preety cheap depends on how good you at bargaining. First of all, things in Indonesia are not as expensive as in The U.S. so remember that... :D

USD 1 is about the same as Rp9,105 (nine thousands one hundred and five rupiah). Rupiah is the currency here in Indonesia.. Have a nice trip :D
Bali is a shoppers dream there is every "knock off" name brands you could want and all at very cheap prices. You must learn the art of bargaining and NEVER offer a price if you are not going to buy it.
watches depending on name and if waterproof 35,000 - 65,000
T Shirts. bilabong 35,000 - 50,000
wallets many different name brands price depends on quality of leather or material.
Sunglasses.... 40,000 - 80,000
If you do not have the art or bargaining then go to Matahari department store in Kuta where the prices are fixed.
