  1. I suspect that they would release a rep of it, just with the wrong material.
  2. Did the letter require you to do anything like report in person, make a declaration or anything? If not, then do not respond to it... simply ignore. In most cases, such cases are routine and the watch will be held and I do not think that it would have dire ramifications. You should of course categorically deny all connections with this watch, that your friend in China sent it to you as a gift and you have no knowledge of it, that there was a mistake in your order, or whatever excuse you could concoct. Like you mentioned, it is just a single watch, and not an entire pallet of watches. The customs would not pay too much attention to you or the watch, is my guess. Also, I doubt that you would be on any "list" at all. Reason being, there could be any number of reasons that the watch was shipped to your address. Unless facts are established, I seriously doubt that you will get into any trouble at all over this. I would like to think that the Homeland Security has more serious concerns to see to than this (and many many other) minor replica purchase in the country. You should also inform the TD involved regarding this customs confiscation and see if they declared it as anything out of the ordinary.
  3. Will get to it, I am not a fan of the brands under the Swatch group but anything for education.

  6. Hahaha now we have all the flyers in one thread. Since my post, my PM inbox has been blissfully quiet and I like it this way. @Ezio, Flyr is another winged brother, as you could tell from his nick. He doesn't fire missiles as much as we do, but he has been known to boot a few disorderly passengers off his plane before for just complaining about the jolts.
  7. If its a question of $55 to do it yourself with a new dial and $100 for someone who could fix it, spend the $100.
  8. Thank you Mike, for the information. Ezio, you're not a soldier anymore right? Book the flight for Singapore instead, lets go for "the best 1:1 Asian fare"
  9. Not to mention the wrong sec@9...
  10. Oh dear, it looks like the dial is warped somehow between the 12 and 1 markers, exposing the layer below, is it an apt description? You cannot solve the problem by realigning the dial mate. The warped portion will still show. The easiest way to solve this would be a dial replacement, which I understand to be a problem on its own, obtaining another dial. The dial could of course be patched up, repaired and resprayed, but I do not think that its worth the effort and money unless you really love this watch to bits.
  11. at first, I thought the frog had a 3 pronged...something. Then i realise its a stool.
  12. With the trunk dipped into a hoe, I mean hole, the elephant must be very happy.
