StormTooper4 Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 NICE! That Porsche Diver is an awesome watch! I want one! +1 to that , but the Hublot (new watch alert) rocks, what type is that? The Rolex is ok but its hard ro tell how the dial is ? its looks a very flat green ? How is it Hike? You've had quite the trip and these are a bit of a bonus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archierocks Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 Is mbk just a normal shopping mall do they sell reps ???always unsure of that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highoeyazmuhudee Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 Is mbk just a normal shopping mall do they sell reps ???always unsure of that both. they have every thing a shopping mall has +reps, most are street quality, some are above average, they sell all kinds of replica items: purses, clothing, parfume, shoes, etc etc. and a really good pizza hut upstairs +arcade and movie theater. its weird as they usually hide the rolex and omegas, since reps arent actually legal in thailand, but keep all the less popular brands flaunted in plain site.

I recommend the Dhara Dhevi in Chiang Mai! It's a great place if you're loaded, or if someone else is paying for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archierocks Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 my fiances dad likes in thailand i wonder if i could get him to pay a visit or go over to visit i always thought it would only be the canal street quality ones in places like this under the counter or behind walls lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Common belief is that a walk-in buyer will get a worse deal than if they went through a TD on the Forum. And thanks for posting the Porsche pieces. They are technically beautiful.

krpster Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 Congrats on the climb! Looking forward to hearing about it. Those Porsche Designs are very cool. What is the purpose/function of the head flipping up like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkay Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 What is the purpose/function of the head flipping up like that? The "crown guard" is the entire chassis of the watch. Flip up the midcase to adjust the crowns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Common belief is that a walk-in buyer will get a worse deal than if they went through a TD on the Forum. And thanks for posting the Porsche pieces. They are technically beautiful. i was trying to find a complete 1680 like the one PT has for a good price. their initial asking was $200 USD and it wasnt the same low beat ETA model either. mind you it is negotiable but people in the mall drive a hard bargain sometimes, too many farangs more than willing to pay the asking price with out bargaining. also keep in mind our dealers are in China, factory direct , Thailand has to import these from China (next door) i buy mostly tee shirts and polos when there since you can get these things for $2 - $6 100% cotton. electronics are also usually the same or more expensive than state side. leather goods are an excellent bargain, quality crocodile leather dress shoes for $70, stingray wallets for $20. then you bargain a better price.
