That's so evident it makes it hard to understand why so many posters here feel the need to insist on that. Business as usual. Dark and dirty, but the daily stuff. I supose we could just get the first reply to post "yeah right" and then everyone after just post "+1"....i hope you'll go thru and 'like' each an every +1.???

Maybe someone on TV knows more about this one? Vacheron-Constantin? . . . thinking of this one, sunshine? I told him about his rude pointing, yesterday, but it makes no difference . . . is he stupid or something?

jenny2017 Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 The timepiece looked similar to a model by Richard Mille, a brand popular among Hollywood and sports stars, which would have cost between Bt4 million and Bt10 million. He can hardly tell them that he's got the watch from his corrupt brother, also an Army general, to be left alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newnative Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 What's to explain. They're all richer than Midas, and most on military or government salaries. But, at least he's maybe squirming a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many Thai people also have investments, which can generate much more personal wealth than they earn directly, just from the job they do. He might well be one of them, although I'd question his wisdom in blowing it on 'bling' like a watch, however 'up-to-you' as locals say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overherebc Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Has anyone ever asked anyone who is wearing a very expensive, and advertised as very very accurate, watch 'what is the time please?' 99.99% of the time the answer will be on the lines of 'nearly 10-o-clock' etc. ??

In cases of this kind there is always an “explanation”.I wonder if there exists in Thailand a politician, a civil servant or a general that has not had the good fortune to inherit or win enormous sums of money.As a reality check can you imagine a retired British general spending that kind of absurd money on such a mind numbingly vulgar object? Whatever the truth there is a stunning lack of class at work here.Sent from my iPhone using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captspectre Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 I KNOW! i have it on good authority that he got the watch from the vendor who constantly walks the streets between soi four and soi thirteen on sukhumvit road! he has all kinds of counterfiet watches and starts his conversation with, "may I help you?" he has been around for many years and is known by nearly all old timers!
