Something for my wrist...

AUDEMARS PIGUET
Royal Oak Offshore SCUBA
BOUTIQUE SPECIAL EDITION
My holiday at Bangkok was good! I came home with something nice. I have been looking to buy an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore watch for some time but with no luck. So i decided to check out the retailers at Bangkok since i am there.

At the first retailer, the only Offshore model they have is the limited edition Rhône-Fusterie. Limited Edition model is not my choice since i didn't want to spend too much on my first Audemars Piguet. Next, i went to another retailer and i saw the Rubber Clad in white dial. If it is a black dial, i would have bought it. After going to the last 2 well-known boutique, i knew Royal Oak Offshore models are scarce in Bangkok. So i thought i won't be able to find anything nice at the last boutique.

When i reach the last retail shop, i knew they would have more choices for me as the shop is really big. I was right because they have more 10 different Royal Oak Offshore. All were not my preference except for the Scuba. I was offered a 15% discount but i bargained and got a 20%. With the VAT refund, the price i paid is a very good deal...

yeah man! But i haven't worn it yet as the strap is too long for my wrist...

anyway, I chose a ROO over the RO is because i prefer the bigger diameter. The scuba is a good choice because the size is the same as the regular ROO but is thinner..
