Seiko does make the "Grand Seiko" which is on-par with many Swiss brands in the "medium-priced" range (Rolex, Omega, etc). And they have the "Credor" brand watches which compete nicely in the "higher-priced" range with their top models (AP, PP, etc). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluespunk Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 1 hour ago, Just Weird said: It's not only Bangkok "elite" that collect watches, it is done all over the world. Those who do it usually don't do it to be cool they do it as an investment and because they want to. Collecting valuable watches is not vulgar, trashy or tasteless, at all, neither does it display low cultural standards (whatever they are). Bragging about them at a press conference is indeed vulgar, trashy and tasteless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayboy Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Oh come now!!! What's wrong with Timex. Good enough for the President of the USA.You are absolutely correct.But apparently there are many who simply cannot comprehend that wearing a Timex or similar actually shows more class.They could never understand.Sent from my iPhone using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most Thai politicians are vulgar low grade arrivistes.A few are not but the majority are.In the former category you can bet the likes of Abhisit or Anand don’t collect bling watches. Is not status one of the misplaced reasons for the acquisition of very expensive and show offy watches? Maybe in your opinion . In the former category you can bet the likes of Abhisit or Anand don’t collect bling watches. Maybe you can bet that and maybe you'd be wrong, but what if they don't, what has that got to do with it?

Beats56 Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Never understood the need for expensive watches. I one got was from the company I worked for before I retired. Nothing fancy but nice. I use to have a novelty watch when I was a ĺad. It had a couple going up and down in the missionary potion if you know what I mean. Wish I kept it...good for a laugh.

Ossy Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 (edited) Prayut 1 : 0 Thailand’s Best Political Reporters The crafty sew-and-sew: he turns up for his weekly grilling by the media, but puts them all – and most of us TV posters, too, I’ll warrant – all on the wrong foot by wearing his sexiest pink blouse and waving his Seiko around, milking the untimely Prawit situation for all its worth. Throw in a bit of sarcasm and rhetoric and he’s turned a meeting that should have been asking him annoying questions about lifting the political meetings ban or whether the 42 billion BKK to CM high-speed rail project that, according to Transport Minister, Arkhom, is scheduled to begin on 21 December 2017 . . . i.e. TODAY did actually begin or was that more of the endless stream of stools that emanate from his and his ministers' mouths? The sad fact is that Prayut had us all beat, this TIME. And it cost me my good name with the Moderator, too. Boy, if I was a Thai reporter at one of those media bashes . . . . I'd . . . well, I'd . . . well, you know what I'm saying. Edited December 21, 2017 by Ossy omission Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
