Instead of making comments relating to what had happened obviously people are making ironic comments. There are good and bad people everywhere in every country and in every race regardless of being white, black or yellow. Just travel once to Russia and you will understand how wrong you are.

Makes sense to me just return it the next day or when your done looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are going to comment at least know what you're talking about instead of following all the other sheep who kept calling it a Navitimer.

zaZa9 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 His crime involved 'intent'. As such , it should be much harsher than for accidently running over a girlfriend with a jetski , or innocently feeding some fish. But I bet it isnt... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just baffles me that someone would risk the fallout over thb1200 <deleted> You can buy a Naviforce watch in America for as little as 450B on eBay. Sorry. Who needs a watch anymore? I carry my phone everywhere. The time is updated from the internet which means it's always correct, regardless of time zone, within one second accuracy. Wearing a watch is nothing more than a fashion statement. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walking yesterday and one of them spat on the street barely missing my foot and then belched out loud. No wonder their FIFA world cup is under threat, as people are seriously thinking of staying away. Not exactly the warmest of folks. Still haven't seen one crack a smile!

Not like us high quality British specimens eh. When we steal we steal toiletries and chocolates from 7/11. I hate to admit it but the Russians cause way less trouble than us generally in Pattaya. But don't let the facts get in the way of your racism. Or even the price of the watch. Or the fact that why would anyone copy a Naviforce anyway.
