Be aware of DHL... With watches... Most dealers won't send Rolex or Tag by them.... UK customs is a strange bird... And very much a lottery... You can have packages opened and just re packed , you can have one rep removed and one rep seized, sometimes they mark package up with a yellow customs examination sticker, other times no sticker but still opened...occasionally they get seized... And if they do believe it or not your name or address is not blacklisted... That's an urban myth... I had a package 2 weeks ago and one watch was taken a PAM and the LW was sent onto me... I had another 3 packages after that all opened and none seized including a PAM... I then had 2 packages seized... A PAM, 2 Rolex , a JL and an AP.... And after they were seized and letters from border agency received I had 7 packages all come in...all to same name and address... So it's a lottery however when compared to other countries in EU the risks are much lower I spoke to a guy who worked for FedEx at uk customs... He explained how packages were checked and sorted.... He also explained what level you have to be as an importer to get an alert against your details... As punters here we are not warranted... Generally if you are showing as tracking info... As "Awaiting Customs Clearance" or "forwarded for processing" and still in "international hub" but your package is in that state for 5 days (not including weekends) then your package has been set aside for inspection if it's over 7 chances are you will get a letter from border agency... I have had 4 such letters.... Though sometimes you may be lucky if it's after 7 but it's certainly being opened... It seems they only seize if the brands agent is available on site, they are only there part time so if your package is opened when say the Richemont guy is there then your PAM will be taken.... But if it's the day the Rolex guy is there and not thevRichemont then the Rolex will be seized and the Pam sent on... I have even learned the names of some of the brand agents after all my experiences.... They all work on the basis that everything from china is fake... But brand agents they tend to focus thier attention in clothing and accessories...and bulky orders like wholesale orders..

Customs, anywhere in the world, still must follow the letter of the law. The need some kind of proof before they can charge anyone of importing illegal goods, a package sent to your address is not proof. Ken

First AP, surely not the last!
