Hi Bro Tsthk, first welcome to ROC-SG, enjoy your stay with us...
I Would like to ask you a questions that I have heard from a HK friend, is that not many guys in HK would buy Rolex with white dial, is it true? It was explained to me that it sounded like "Pak Loh" in cantonese...

Actually, I've never heard that one before. There are similar superstitions about blue face Rolexes because the cantonese pinyin is 'Lam Loh' which sounds like 'Lan Loh' and roughly translates to 'bad or hard business situation'
I would be more concerned about 'Pak Moh' (100 nothings)
That's why you always call your new girlfriend's mom 'Pak Yau' if you want to get on her good side!

Anyway, I used to call my Mom-IL as Mom-OutLaw before married, see relationship was not so soothing, and tension was present there and then..
