My impression though, looking at the prices generally, was that despite the high rents etc in KLCC, you are better off buying in KL itself, rather than in the airport, if you can.
I also wandered into Patek Philippe and asked the price of the 5712, SS, blue dial just to get an idea. Not in stock of course, but RM 117,000, which works out at GBP 20k or so.
