The Watch Thread - Part 6

[Henabi]

how about the watch box especially those big kind?

I understand that nowadays when u exit the arrival hall, the security will get everyone to scan their luggage..

mail back the boxes bah?! I know watch boxes can be extremely big and bulky. probably can ask the watch AD whether they provide mailing services, which I'm sure will cost you just an additional 50 to 100 bucks.

My experience is that if you use
Post/EMS - they don't track the value, never been taxed
DHL - sometimes they check and tax you
FedEx - Kena tax every time

My experience with DHL so far everytime kenna tax (plus $10 admin fee).

Received my new hoot ordered from UK via registered mail yesterday. Never kenna GST as the shipper stated value of the box as $150. Saved S$200+ GST.

My old beater

That's definitely an interesting piece for collectors. It's a chronograph which they produce only 480 times because they produce 20 watches for each country with a GP racecourse. Wouldn't it be interesting to have one of the 20 Singapore watches? I'm just considering... It's 2,600 Euro (w/o GST) with a leather strap. (of course not ) But share with you guys

He also won awards designing other watches like Stowa

Like the details on your Helson Black Beard. They are doing another run of the Black Beard but it's different from yours.
