mrxten Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 I recently bought a clock in the Jungceylon shopping mall. I found it in the SuperSports store. I did buy it and everything works great. Doesn't look fake if you'd ask me. Still I'm curios. Do they sell real/original things there? Brand of the clock is Rip Curl.Thanks in advance,// Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitchag Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 (edited) Rip Curl is a brand of surf wear in Austraila never heard of them making clocks to go surfing, with a watch may be, google it for best answers Edited November 23, 2013 by pitchag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlieH Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Probably a cheap clock and some Thai somewhere saw and liked the design and copied it and stuck into the clock hoping to sell more. Thats the usual story, whatever it takes to sell it doesnt matter where or who its copied from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdw Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 I am surprised it works for you, since the Thais use a different time zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bifftastic Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Is it safe to buy a clock? No! It's the most dangerous thing you could have done! What were you thinking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bpuumike Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 I would suggest it's not an on original as Rip Curl, a very big Oz brand, don't sell 'clocks'. On the other hand, if it keeps good time and is still running then don't worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leggo Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Rip curl should be called Rip off like all the big surf companies - they all make watches which are complete rubbish made in China and sold for huge margins to all those spoilt little git 'must have' surfers. They do make a few clocks; but if you bought in Thailand it'll be a copy -if it tells the time who cares!!!

The store did belong to Supersports and the receipt is from there. But it was like a store in a store, if you get what i mean. So receipt + VAT refund. They did only sell watches. Did pay some money for it so gotta be sure if i got scammed or not. Ive attached some pics.. Best regards, fyi. Did swim with it, didn't leak any water Ofc i didn't mean clock. As the pic above . I meant watch. Edited November 24, 2013 by mrxten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravip Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Did you check if there is a serial number and if so whether the manufacturer allows you to register it on-line? Some products have this fascility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some products have this fascility. Thank you. I did check and as it appears.. the clock does not have a serial number. Cant find that option on RipCurl website neither. After a quick search on there page i found that they are selling there watches at the Jungceylon. And it looks like the same store. Should have checked that first i guess. Thanks tho for the replies.
