Rolex in Bangkok

Hey hey.

I was walking around Sukhumvit in Bangkok this afternoon and spotted the following:

YMII in YG and WG in display cases at two ADs.

Both ADs had Milgauss displayed. One had a white, one had a black. The prices are: US9,466 for the white, and 11,044 for the black.

I also saw a Patek 5711 Nautilus in SS sitting in a display window, and now, these babies are even rarer than Daytonas... and I mean... RARE... but that's another thread, in another section.

Thanks for reading.

If the Nautilus is so rare, how come you found one not only at an AD but in the window display, to boot?

Anyway, it seems you had a nice watch browsing day!

That's what I'm wondering Bo.

It's kind of strange, the Nautilus still selling at a premium, and NO WAITING LIST. This is totally unprecedented.

But the Milgauss premium is kind of disgusting too.

I had to go to a hospital (for a jag) in sukhumvit once- (Bomrumgrad hospital or something like that). it had escalators and a starbucks. but most amazingly of all the service was great.
