CharlieH Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 As your question is Pattaya specific, it would be better moved to that forum. MOVED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johng Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 There are a couple of shops selling "high end" watches in the Central Festival Beach shopping mall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huayrat Posted April 28, 2015 Author Share Posted April 28, 2015 Oh well guess that was a waste of time.. Best get my running shoes on and go hunting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woody1 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Central have high end watches (Brietling, Tag, Rolex, etc), but you would be far better off going to BKK for greater selection and better price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enoon Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Go running down Beach Road and you'll see loads of people selling those sort of watches. Much cheaper than Central. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinnieTheKhwai Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 (edited) Oh well guess that was a waste of time.. Best get my running shoes on and go hunting What / who are Mulberry watches? You mean Burberry by any chance? Either way, Thailand is not the best place to shop for luxury brand items of any kind. If I feel like splurging then big money can be saved shopping in the USA. And for watches in particular, import duty isn't all that much so you could even buy from the non-AD gray market sellers like Jomashop.com and have it shipped. (Though of course if you wait until a US trip then you won't have the shipping and duty to deal with. The only watches that can occasionally be bought at a competitive price are G-Shocks, but then only when shopping around. Even entry level or mid-range Seikos are best purchased out of Singapore or Japan. Then once you get to luxury brands the USA is the way to go, including all the Swiss brands. And if I put on my watch-snob hat, I could also add that Burberry (and Gucci) is one of those fashion brands that now make 'everything', usually contracted out to companies that actually make watches and sunglasses for a living, then slap on the brand. I think all their watches are in the fashion-quartz category, retailing at or below the actual Swiss watch brands. (Watch brands like Tissot, Longines, Oris, Mido, Hamilton etc. etc. who (also) make quality mechanical watches) EDIT: I know this isn't particularly helpful but adding it anyway in case this topic every comes up in a search.

raro Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 We don't want to discuss knock offs here, ok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinnieTheKhwai Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 (edited) Follow up, and a more direct solution to the OP's question: If it is indeed Burberry then this seems like a really good source, and at reasonable prices: https://www.facebook.com/pwatchshop Website: http://www.p-watchoriginal.com/ Also for other fashion-brands like Armani, Coach. DKNY... (I.e. not really 'true' watch brands.. but I think I made that point already. ) Edited May 4, 2015 by WinnieTheKhwai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
