Hi fellow punters.
First of all let me apologize for posting this off topic question in the forum.
It's probably still a better thread than all the shop spam.
Here's my question:
I'll be in Bangkok on a business trip in two weeks from now and would like to buy a good replica watch.
A colleague of mine came back from a Thailand trip with an awesome Omega Seamaster replica which even on closer inspection was hard to distinguish from the original.
I know some brothers will reply nothing beats the original but that's certainly not a possibility right now so I'm planning to go for the next best thing. Any suggestions where to find such a piece? I'm looking for a high quality replica, not some rubbish that the street vendors hassle you with. Unfortunately I can't ask my colleague any more as we lost touch. I know some Brothers visit Bangkok regularly so any intel is much appreciated.
Thanks guys,
Hiatus

I put this here because it is "off topic!"

But has anyone ever noticed that Penny Wong is Chow Yun Fat ??

Good spotting Sextus but I think Penny goes by the name of
"Chow Yun Flap"!

Did you ask your colleague where he bought his?

Hotel concierges are usually good with this sort of info, maybe even taxi drivers

Har Har, that is witty Choc-O-Block.

I can see it now - Chow Yun Flap, Chow Yun Fat's stunt double in Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon II :shout:

There is an overseas forum.

My first stop would probably be MBK, otherwise the street seller on Suk.

I know a bloke in Pattaya (2 hours from BKK) who sells sensational replicas...all the high end stuff and big brand names. If you have some spare time why not go to Pattaya overnight, go to all the great places and go to this guys shop.
