EEEEK!!! That's a REAL Rolex!

I decided to go down to the 'New Gold Souk' in Dubai today and have a look around. I was walking up to one of the jewelry kiosks and the young man running it called out to me, "ma'am, you like watches? You want Rolex?" I was guessing he'd spotted the Bluesy I've got on today.

"Haha, yeah sure" was my response, thinking it couldnt' be worse than the fakes I seen a few days ago from a street vendor. They were Wow, was I wrong! This thing was HORRIBLE! It was made of plastic!!! In the second it took me to realize how bad it I was I was trying to hand it back, but the vendor was trying to put in on my wrist. I could feel my poor bluesy trying to crawl up my shoulder in fear.

Right then the vendor saw my watch, apparently for the first time. He froze, "EEEEK!!! That's REAL Rolex!!!", and couldn't get his watch away from me fast enough. He tried to take my hand for a closer look, but I held it up just out of reach and let him look. He ooh'ed and ahh'ed for a sec, then said "But I bet mine costs less!" I had to give him the point there, and we had a laugh.
