arminvanbuuren Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Hi i checked my tracking today.. and it said Your item was released from Customs(COMMENWEALTH OF AUSTRALIA MELB EMS) at 2007-07-23 17:47:00... it said that it has been released in melbourne.. but i live in adelaide which is in a different state.. how many times does a package go through the customs? does this mean that it'll get checked through customs again in adelaide? or this means that my package should be ok? because im concern about this :S and normally it took 1 day from customs to delivery but this time.. its been 2 days and it still hasn't arrived yet.. so yeh.. its not that i cant wait.. i can wait.. but i just wanna make sure that its been through the customs so i dont need to stress anymore :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornerstone Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 You can relax! It only goes through customs once, presumably it arrived via Melbourne, and will continue to SA. What is the beauty you're waiting on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arminvanbuuren Posted July 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Ah, dropped watch syndrome...nasty! In Sydney right now. haha i know oh well another reason to get a new watch .. i took it back to the AD and they told me that they gonna have to send it back to tissot or something to repair it.. i thought its not even worth it, to fix the damn watch it'll cost me probably 200$.. then i thought id just get a UPO.. looks better than tissot anyway and its an omega heheheh.. ahh yeh hows sydney treatin u? ..

cornerstone Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 With the tissot I definitely know the man to ask about the glass, it might be an easy swap with the quartz movement, don't know too much about them. What I mean is, it might be possible to make it functional without the official repair and parts perhaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arminvanbuuren Posted July 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 It could do with heating up, the novelty of winter has worn off! Plus my watches are freezing in the morning....need a little warmer for them or something! With the tissot I definitely know the man to ask about the glass, it might be an easy swap with the quartz movement, don't know too much about them. What I mean is, it might be possible to make it functional without the official repair and parts perhaps. In a couple of months I have a visitor coming over with a gen 3717, so I'm keen to see it before pouncing on that one. haha was quite warm in adelaide today actually... sunny and most girls were dressing sexy.. sunshine and all ... do you know what kind of quarts movement is in the tissot? and the glass? do you know how much to repair them? but i don't really care about the tissot anymore lol.. i just want my planet ocean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornerstone Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 .. i just want my planet ocean The PO is the way to go - did you go for orange or black? Or black and orange? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arminvanbuuren Posted July 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 The PO is the way to go - did you go for orange or black? Or black and orange? black and orange all the way!! .. mannnnnnnn ihope this wait is worth it.. nothing beats getting a perfect rep after waiting for so longgg.. but nothing is worst than waiting for so long and get some effed up reps with misaligned bezel, misaligned blablablabla.. i just hope everything is workinga nd good and ready to hit the water.. coz my tissot can go under water Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saving my oscar winning performance for when I first hear the phrase "Dad, I want a pony." dammit that reminds me.. if i marry her that means i have to go through "Dad, I want a pony." but don't worry ill teach her to say "Dad, don't worry about the UPO, just buy yourself a UPO"... hehhe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
