I know in neighboring Thailand, the Thai people really do value clocks & watches...it can make a nice gift...it is very common to see shops in Thailand which solely clocks and watches...not something we see too much here at least in the USA...usually if a place sells nicer clocks it's a nice furniture store...or a jewelry store will sell watches and maybe some nice clocks....otherwise massive chain stores have taken over and most people go to Walmart, etc or chain jewelry stores in the mall...or now internet.
