Any good ADs or Grays in Ho Chi Minh City?

Sitting here waiting for my delayed flight to board and was thinking, does anyone have any good grays or ADs to check out while in HCMC for some watch spotting?

Thanks!

I was there at the AD in Saigon 2 mos back , the selection was small with no SS sport watches. My lady was more impressed with the Chanel boutique :). If you buy you can most of the sale tax back at the airport when you leave.

Thanks for the info about the sales tax! I can imagine the Chanel was distracting! Haha

There is an AD in the fancy mall across from Notre Dame Cathedral. When I was there in 2016 (before demand really started going crazy), they did have some of the more desirable sport watches but the exchange rate wasn't favorable at all. Even factoring in the VAT refund, prices in USD were comparable or higher to back home. I don't the exchange rate has changed much since then.

Looks like the AD is still there but was blocked by construction and closed for the holiday unfortunately
