We bought some watches that were very popular. The cover over the face is painted like a laquered box. There are smaller similar images along the band. Easiest to find in museum shops.
Uh, slawecki, I think Paulguy was talking about taking stuff from the US to Russia, to give to the Russians. I'd have to echo what chalf said about most things being available, for a price, in Moscow. Foreign premium brands is a good call. Quick question: are these colleagues Russians or American expats?
