Pineapple And Cucumber Salad - Midsummer Thai Dinner

I served this as a side dish with a coconut chicken curry and Thai spring rolls. It was an amazingly good salad. Everyone asked me for the recipe. I highly recommend it. (I did, however, substitute fresh cilantro for the watercress and I really think that made it.)
