Hong Kong still the place to buy?

All I can say is it was a very heavy rain day, and maybe less shoppers than usual.

So it can just happen like this. You need to try them all.
Funny thing is I didn't take it. I tried it on and..well.. it didn't do the wow effect I was expecting. No instant love. Somehow nothing more than my Sub to me.
I guess the watch was gone in the following hour anyway!

The net price was not the cheapest on Earth. If you're a globe trotter and easy with queuing at tax refund counters, you can find better deals.
But for a BLNR it's not a question of saving a few bucks here or there imho. It's a question of being lucky enough to be able to get one - at least for those in love with that reference.

Excellent, great to hear.

Would probably go asking around today and see what I find

Thanks
