Is the Houston Galleria Boutique closed?

I was in the Galleria yesterday and and the Rolex Boutique was closed. Given zero inventory and the Galleria turning into thug central it’s not surprising (another murder in the parking garage Saturday). Does anyone know if this is a temporary situation or if they’re moving? It doesn’t appear from looking through the window that there has been much recent activity, but there were still display cases.

They are not open on Sundays if that’s when you were there. They are very much open, they are said to be the 3rd largest volume dealer in the US. “Thug Central, really?”

Some people really show their age and class with their choice of words… ridiculous

Then why did you go there?

If you don’t get why there’s two of us calling OP out on his terminology, you’re part of the problem.

Oh I know exactly why you’re calling him out. Someone was shot to death in the parking garage the other day but the real problem is the mean words used to describe the culprits. You’re a joke.

I don't know about where the rest of you live, but here, in Texas, some Malls are filled with Thugs. If you want to call them something else, call them "Gang Members" or "Nerdowells" who hang out there. Often there are fights & even shoot-outs. So yes, the Term "THUGS" does apply. God help you as you go to the parking lots with a nice purchase.

If this bothers you, sorry, th truth hurts.

MANY stores have Security guards in them, but once you leave...you're on your own!!

Just telling it like it is. Looks like you’re crying too.

You’re new here and I predict you won’t last long. Racist overtones and personal attacks are not welcomed here. We talk about watches.

Two people were murdered at two separate malls this weekend in that city, and the victims were likely the same race as the murderers. Keep crying about words man I’m sure you’ll change the world with your tears.

Thugs and shoot outs at the mall and then you guess asks if it’s safe to wear a watch in Europe. Looooool I love this place.

I'm sure he'll be disappear just as quickly as he showed up. Check his post history, just some punk skateboarder kid who bought an Explorer with his BTC profitz and now fancies himself a watch enthusiast.

Mmmmm delicious tears. The irony in your post is the cherry on top.

Perhaps if you spent less time as a troll on the internet, you'd be able to afford another Rolex.

Who’s trolling? People were murdered and you guys are crying about the word “thug”.
