Early days yet! Unless anything changes in the status you could find it sat there for a couple more weeks. I've also had parcels released within minutes and once had it turn up at the door whilst the system still states held in customs.

It'll be fine, just don't stress it!

Mine was sat in Coventry customs for a week, I then got hit with £25 charges but not the end of the world. My second came in 1 week exactly from payment to delivery so I wouldn't sweat it, just horrible having to wait.

The guys are just taking turns wearing your new watch. Be patient, they'll put it back in the box for you after they're done ;)

I know it sucks but hold tight my friend. I had a gen watch that was shipped from the States and held in customs for over a week. Eventually it was released and I had a bill to pay £20 VAT (including a handling charge).

In the US stuff can sit for 2 weeks, then the mail comes, your package is in there, and the web page gets updated 2 days later. Don't sweat it, it's part of the game.

Now it switch to this, what does it mean?

You'll most likely receive a letter with a bill for around €15 VAT and handling charges I think. Once it's paid then they should deliver the watch.

Mine said exactly the same mate, just be patient the watch will turn up in a few days now but quite possible you may get a charge like I did. However I didn't wait for the letter, as soon as the watch was in my local depot I drove down paid over the counter and got my watch!!

Have you had a card? As if it was an actual attempted delivery will leave a card in your letterbox mate or....

 

If not then chances are it means its on the delivery van for Monday... as I have never known PF to deliver on a Saturday

 

but it could also mean that a letter has been sent to state you need to pay some charges but that I really doubt as its not in the schedule you list above (ie Awaiting customs charge)

 

 

For Reference: both RM and PF state attempted delivery if they have sent out a letter/card to say you need to pay customs charges.. daft I know but tehy obviously dont have that choice when updating tracking...
