ForzaAP Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 Just placed a large order with a TD, in the 5 figures, lots of watches that I look to keep me busy Modding and enjoying for months and months to come. Has anyone had any real issues with larger orders with any TD, Customs, or just not receiving the full order? Any feedback helps, positive or otherwise of course. All the Best!

highoeyazmuhudee Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 And who is TD term for any "Trusted Dealer" noted on this forum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greekgod Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 I am assume cib0rgman is asking who this TD is from whom you have ordered? I would think any known TD on this forum will be a safe bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hiker01 Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 They'll break down the shipment, usually in batches of two......over that and you're courting Mr. Customs person.........but on the other hand, he could be a gamblin' man!

PeteM Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 I reckon he is showing off... he is including the zeros after the decimal point as well :) Well hopefully you used a dealer that will replace if seized and he will break up shipment into 2 or 3 at most... You need to share pics when they arrive and tell us the plans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogerthat Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 Would definitely be nervous about customs for that many watches. Assuming a little over $300 per watch, you would be talking 30 plus watches? If they ship 2-3 watches per shipment ; you would be getting 10 - 15 shipments.

Mr Z Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 mine where all shipped at once ... Even thou I asked to be shipped in 2 stages ... but TD insisted that it will be ok and will cover replacement if it got seized .. !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are sick, then a lot of us share the same illness lol, to varying degrees. Congrats on your purchase, and enjoy the watches! Don't you wish you have 39 arms to wear them all at once? haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForzaAP Posted September 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 Mate, he probably can't hear you. Circling Earth in his brand new Challenger IX now. lol Not quite... Notice the RB2 with AR & Lume I'll be posting photos of the order from Angus as it arrives also. I'll need the expertise on this forum to get the most out of each mod for each watch, I won't need the jealousy and ignorance from the doubters & haters though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend Posted September 4, 2012 Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 very nice pic! Isnt that a 599? Yes post the watches but you might also like to search for the mods that AP owners do, the info is quite available on the forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForzaAP Posted September 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 Yes its the 599 GTB..Great drivers car, although I have my eye on something else.. Yes I try to find all the threads with the modded watches but I can't seem to find them when I want to, I just stumble upon them. I think I have my job cut out for me with this order and making them the best they can be. I think first order of business is to order new straps for all those lacking in that department. HKTan has not responded to me, any help for an alternative would be helpful there as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
