Who wears a real Rolex on a holiday to a third world country?? and who needs to have so much money in cash on him/her???Stupid...

Likely a fake Rolex. Didn't know Thailand is a third world country, their bts sure beats anything in the US 55.

Stroll at 2am? Rolex? Bht 50,000? I DON'T BELIEVE IT!

It’s always a Rolex isn’t it. 
Something doesn’t smell right with his story. ????

If he’d been pitching instead of catching with the LB on the beach, he’d have seen his LB mates coming. ????

I was going to post a comment, but then I realized that he was a French Canadian.

It's not like he's a real Canadian or anything...

Nothing surprises me anymore when it comes to tourists leaving their common sense ( did they have any? ) at the airport.

If you wear a real Rolex, everyone will call you dumb.  Big house, dumb.  Nice car, dumb.  Cash, dumb.

 

that’s why I don’t wear a watch, threadbare shoes (nice adjective) and 5 baht in my sock.

 

plus I’ve never showered .  Keep them away.

 

and he needs more tattoos to really be a farang in Thailand 

OK Mr Rich Guy

You dont need to brag about owning a sock  

 

Back to normal, muggings or beat up for mouthing off in Phuket. He should think himself lucky he wasn't on Koh Tao ????

Is that your best come back? Poor guy. For you to take the time to analyze what others write so you can come to the conclusion that AN bloggers think they are Columbo makes you a Clouseau in the works. Do you count ants in an ant colony when you have nothing to do????? ????

 

I actually read the other bloggers comments to see whether their opinion matches mine. Sort of like a gauge. Usually I respond to the content not the gist...

Well I stand by the triggered comment

Stole his Lolex? Sorry, his Rorex? I mean Rolex? And his 50k? Disturbing.

 

I hope his insurance compensates him for his losses. They must. After all, that's what insurance is for. To claim for a lost Lolex, I mean Rorex and 50k thb which he incidentally had with him at 2 AM. 

About 10 years ago I got a lucrative contract with an O&G company in Iraq. I've always wanted a Rolex so I bought a Submariner from a dealer in Bkk and paid north of 300 k baht.They were out of 50k models.lol. Later on I wore it on a 2 week vaccy to China and got so many stares that I sold it to a friend after owning it less that a year. It was on my bucket list but a poor move on my part. The Canuck has his wires crossed and has probably not traveled much IMHO.

Its amazing how many tourists are walking around with 50K in their pocket and a Rolex on their wrist - on the beach! Still, I'm sure he will have travel insurance ????.  They really should be more careful.

How would that work? If in fact it was a genuine Rolex the insurance company would probably be asking many questions as well as providing a receipt confirmed with a bill of sale. A full police report translated and notorized in English/French.His story has more holes that a block of swiss cheese.

Nothing good happens at 2am especially when your carrying a wedge of cash and advertising it on your wrist ????

Seems that the 77Kaoded report was inaccurate, it was only B5,000 in cash.

In English please! Your local patois and jargon mean nothing to me. Hence, Jimmy crack corn. A man of few words doesn't make him register much on the IQ or EQ Richter Scale.

Good one. I am not sure the evening markets can provide a receipt for a fake Rolex. But judging by the amount of tats he has he must have some cash. To bad he can't claim insurance on his ink.

You got that right Banana, this guy needs way more Tats to really fit in with the expats. It would also help if he would gain some weight and shave his head.

The tattooed imbecile wants us to believe it's a good idea to walk around at 2am in a nightlife area whilst carrying 50,000 baht in cash and a Rolex.

 

Now probably trying to pull a scam.
