  4. Thoughts on redundancy in collections

    Redundancy? What redundancy?

    In my case, it's usually because I double down on parts for my builds and once I'm done putting together one watch, I end up with enough parts to build another 1.5 of the same thing.

    In the end I always end up parting with one and keeping the other... So I do diversify. But there are often times when I do have overlap and duplication in my watch box.

  5. Watches and Travelling

    Damn, I told my TSA buddies to confiscate the Patek and deliver it to ME for inspection.... B)

    Yeah, they did mention you by name; thought that was kinda strange :bangin:

    :)

    Your photo reminds me of the South Park television episode several weeks ago. The story centered around the Toilet Safety Administration (TSA)

    The TSA employees request to "jus' check ya ayss hole" before allowing you to use the toilet.

    Wasn't that the 'Reverse Cowgirl' episode or something along those lines?

  7. Watches and Travelling

    Just to follow up on this- I went to SoCal a week or so back, travelling with 4 watches in a travel case and one watch on my wrist.

    Flying out to my destination was no problem. Coming home however, TSA did stop me in the security check and asked to inspect the contents of the travel case. They saw that it contained 4 watches, but still insisted on running it through the x-ray conveyor belt twice. After a small group of TSA folks stood around discussing something, they brought my watches back and let me on my way.

    Not a huge deal in the end; minor inconvenience, but I can't help but feel that maybe I jynxed myself a little by posting this thread before leaving on our trip?

  24. My current dilemma.

    Seller may have listed the declarable value at a lower figure to get the parcel through customs without incident.

    Agree with what has been mentioned- The liability of the transaction depends on what was specified in the sales listing regarding responsibilities of parties involved.
