the classic ingy looks great!

I realize it's risky using couriers like Fedex when shipping from US dealers to EU (blacklistings, etc). Would using a courier like UPS or Fedex be much more risky than reg.airmail when a fellow member sends a watch to another member? (all other things being equal, i.e. no insurance, declared value, "horological parts returned to owner")

About to ship a rep from US to EU. After reading previous messages on the forum I reckon a brown padded envelope, registered airmail and NO mentioning of watch/watchparts is the safest option. I don't mind paying taxes or customs fees. My main objective is to get my hands on the watch. - How do you people usually send these things successfully across the pond? - Would it make any difference (not considering the cost) to declare the full value (~500) or just a fraction of it, say $50? Thanks, it's my first "expensive" rep, so I'd hate for it to get lost.

I actually saw this watch on the train this morning, looked gorgeous. A def buy.

Hi all! I've been reading and learning a lot from this great forum of yours but this is my first post. I'm quite close to pulling the trigger on my first rep watch, most likely with the Asian 7750 movement. After reading the movement-reviews I got the feeling that I should get it serviced right away to prevent any mishaps in the future. Do you guys service your A7750 movements right away or is it unnecessary? If it should be done are there any dealers in EU that offer this (to avoid additional shipments)? Thanks a bunch!
