Wearing A Bailout On Your Wrist, Or Why Cyprus Should Speak To The Ukraine
As the Cypriots scramble for every penny, hoping for a Hail-Mary from Russia at the last minute, we suspect they are missing one potential provider of all that money. That nation appears to be Russian neighbor, The Ukraine judging from the 'wealth' exhibited by some members of the Ukrainian parliament. As EnglishRussia.com notes, a $650,000 watch is no problem if you create laws in Ukraine as we humbly suggest some that wealth (the rare watch is special order (here) with only 30 being made) trickle down to the Cypriots (of course at EUR400 per day per person) - they only need 7,000 watches to plug their bailout funding hole!

All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others.
Shit I was thinking of buying one of those $0.99 casio's since my watch died last year.
How could those 4 people owe 50 million dollars?
Ukranians exist in a distorted "pricing" magnetosphere...

cyprus is like when you are a kid and your mother and father are yelling and you don't exactly know what it is about but it seems like they are angry at you even though you aren't the one who had lipstick on the collar
I would consider anybody that buys and wears one of those to be a dumb f___ even if it was real..., I doubt that one is.

Don't worry, the Ukraine is having major finacial problems. Once they are back in play for a bailout those 5 dollar skanks will be in competition for the high end ladies that go for 7 dollars.
First thought was of that movie, whatever the name was, where the guy wouldn't give the robber his watch so the robber just chopped his arm off.
Time's a comin' folks....
BTW... Hasn't anybody ever told him never to wear a striped shirt with a striped suit?
@knukles
I think this actually happened in the late 80's (I heard about it at the time) in the Seattle area to a guy wearing a locked Rolex. I think it was a chainsaw or something. Maybe just an urban legend.
No, I think you're right...
LOL
Fucking chain saw your watch off
Sounds like something shoulda been in Pulp Fiction
My first thought was that's the kind of watch you'd hide up your ass, like in Pulp Fiction.

Dump the watches. Google Glass man!
650K for a fucking watch they saw that cunt coming, there again he is dumb ass politician.
Certainly you dont´ sit in the ukrainian parliament :)
I think he sells marriage visas on the side
Whatever they cost now, cheap at twice the price! I got the most awesome woman from there for just a few pennies on the dollar, never mind the awesome children she has given me. The equivalent of $2,000 a night consort for a king for the price of a $5 trick.
Probably a Chinese fake..
$213.00

I'll spend the $213, buy a truck, a home in the Redoubt, a small arsenal, and a pile, a BIG pile of PM's with the rest...
You can get a much better "platinum" fake at the Lo Wu KCR station for under $200. You cannot tell the difference unless you are a jeweler, and even then maybe not. The quality of the fake Rolexes is absolutely sublime, and they even sell fake repair parts and bands, fake boxes, and fake certificates of authenticity.
Visit that place one time and it becomes hard to ever buy a "real" luxury watch, purse, or sunglasses again. How are you going to know?

LOL, I've actually been there the picture was an awesome flashback.... a excellent post 'hedgeless' and the copies are just sensational. Even the movement is impossible for the layman to tell. Even buying from a Rolex dealer is risky....
Still, I cannot see the point why anyone would buy a fake watch.
It's a nice place, by the way, and is more than just for shopping. However, if you do go to shop then better with a local or Hong Kong friend. When you shop walk somewhere else and let the local buy for you... it will be a third cheaper on the already cheap price, etc. Awesome high quality denim and other items... I think they just come from the same factory that makes the real stuff. Hardly anyone displays a price it's all negotiable.
All the HK residents go to shop on the weekend for a few hours using the subway and trains. Plus you can smoke, spit and the food and drink is just fantastic.
Gan bei Bitchez!!
Well, I own some quality watches and some fake ones. I bought the fakes to see if I would like the watch after a few weeks of wearing. None of the fakes comes even close to the real thing. It would be great if the fakes really could fool me, but you can tell if you have worn the real thing once you feel it. From a distance, it would be hard to tell though. I keep the fakes lying around in case I ever get burglarized.
You gave me an idea -keepingg fake watches in case you're burglarized and some fake bullion in case it's confiscated.
a fake? that's fitting.....the entire situation is a fake....fake economy, fake political philosophy, fake financial statements, fake press conferences....
To be fair, it's still a real watch.
Umm, u ever see the Italian Job?
Three things you dont mess with...
If going fake, he could have sprung for the Platinum edition to pretend he spent $750,000 or even gone the "Diamond" version...............'Contact Us for Pricing'
If youre asking , you cant afford it
Yes that's all very nice and all but does it tell the time in Gstaad?
In Gstaad time tells watches
Anyone know when the 'Tungsten' edition is coming out?
Takes licking and keeps on ticking - Cyprus that is
watch? thats a gdp.
how about just ONE trillion Euro platinum coin ?
Genghis Khan, how fucking fitting is that?
Good target for the rolex girls, or whatever they may call themselves now. . .
A ho by another other name...
I hope his health insurance policy has a 'body part replacement ' inclusion.
The thing looks ridiculous to me, but then again what do I know....I don't get $500,000 a day for pushing a button.
that is one ugly watch.
Yea frankly I wouldn't pay $10 for that ridiculous lookin thing....but then again I'm not a member of the Billionaire Handjob Boys club like this guy is where shit like that carries great weight.
Biz card scene from 'American Psycho' comes to mind.
