Thanks guys. Homer, have you ever had any problems with customs into china using parcel force / ems?

Thanks HB. But, unless I'm missing something, thats just for Hong Kong ... ?

You should probably post this in The Breitling Area but yeah, for the most part the dealers linked to from this forum all get their stuff from the same sources. Just email a couple and go with the one you get the best reply from.

No one knows who delivers UK Airmail once it reaches China and if it can be tracked? Bump.

Awesome. Looking forward to it.

Woops. This model needs a 22mm band.

Hi guys. This question might come accross as borderline lazy but Ive just spent a good 40 minutes on google and cant find the answer. My Day Date Carerra (CV2A11) is away being fixed and the oppertunity to buy a new band has come up, but I dont know the width the band needs to be at the clasp end and want to make sure this new band will fit. The lugs are 20mm apart and I think the clasp is 18mm but im not sure. Could anyone check theirs and let me know? I'd be really greatful as it would hopefully mean not missing out on this oppertunity to pimp my Carerra Thanks heaps in advance.

Yes I'm aware of that. Just trying to establish who delivers the package internally in China, once Royal Mail has handed it over.

Okay so my package left the UK sent via airmail. According to Royal Mail its been given to the Chinese mail service. Del_RFC, you implied that airmail can me tracked in China after it leaves the UK? Can you let me know how? I cant see any tracking options on the China Post webpage? http://www.chinapost.cn/english/index-e.htm It isnt delivered by EMS internally in China, is it? Their tracking page doesnt give any results. Cheers for the help.

Probably doesnt realise its fake.

Hey Musicale how did you end up with this? Did you have any luck? Im now looking for a black leather racing strap to go on my CV2A10 (Day/Date) rep which is 20mm wide at the lugs. Would be nice to keep it on the deployment ...

Im a newbie but i think the 'ultimate' is the v4? The font on the numbers is too thin.

Lol ... sure. If your happy to pay USD 400 a day Oh and in my post that should be 'designer'. I'm not a 'design'

Awesome to see them giving it a shot though. Hope to see more. I just desperately want a decent rep

Is there any confusion that this is a quartz? It is. Movement: Japanese OS 20 Working Chronograph Quartz Movement Why on earth would a factory think this would outsell a decent faced blue monaco? Its so off it looks like a fantasy watch to me. Youd spot that as a rep across a room. Atleast this might full someone from a distance: But that doesn't mean its not rubbish.

All the IT jobs were bound to come up, but its curious to see so many advertising/marketing people. I'm a freelance motion graphic design.

You want to drop in a gen dial? I seriously doubt it would fit as the reps are soooo far off being acurate. If you email a dealer they should tell you the size. A good dealer anyway. Let us know if you get this working, would be really interesting to see.

Ahh sweet thats awesome to know. I'll hold off buying anything untill after my bangkok visit. Thanks heaps

I thought the original shipping date was June 2009 for those that pre-ordered before Jan 2009, and that this date had been missed? I may be completely wrong.

Hi folks, I'm building my collection at the moment and so of course thinking about what watch box to buy. Theres a few options out there I've got my eye on but I'm just wondering if anyone has bought a box in MBK? I'll be in Bangkok in a couple of months so thinking that might be an option. I've shopped there a handful of times for leather bags and shoes etc but never even thought to look for watch boxes / cases in the past. Would love to hear about any experiences. Thanks.

Acutally as I understand it having someone carry it in for you doesnt change the fact that legally your still suppost to pay tax on it. Of course the odds of your friend having their luguage searched and asked for proof of purchase is somewhat slim Mark it as less than 30 quid worth and no one will look at it twice. Even if they open the package up theyd have no reason to think it worth more than that. Unless there is a receipt in it or its insured for a large amount.

Thought I'd post this link: http://cl-portal.org/Tag-Heuer/Tag-Heuer-Monaco/ Its all rubbish but its the biggest selection of Monacos I've seen with real photos. Prices very high though, when compared to the one being sold by King.

Sent wm9 an email about that very model about 2 weeks ago. No reply as yet.

Thanks for the replies Oh wow that is quite a wait. Anyone else have experience with delivery times?

Hi folks, I'm in the UK and need to return a watch to the dealer in China, who has said "please send by register airmail or ems". Does anyone know, if I want it to be delivered in China by EMS, who do I ship it with from the UK? I've spent some time on the ems.com.cn and really cant figure it out. Do I just sent with Royal Mail? I'm guessing that it would be silly to send it without tracking, but then the only fully tracked option costs over
