space Posted September 20, 2007 Report Posted September 20, 2007 I'm going to spend 5 nights in New York, in about a month, and all my watches are replicas... ( Except some old crappy watches ) Is it any risk wearing a rep through customs at Newark? I think the UPO will be my watch of choise. I'm just going to wear one on my wrist. none in the luggage.
corpsman Posted September 20, 2007 Report Posted September 20, 2007 nah you should'nt be worried. its an accesory item. no one is gonna inspect something on your body.
Desuetude Posted September 20, 2007 Report Posted September 20, 2007 I really wouldn't worry about it. Newark is usually too concerned about not losing your luggage in the first place.
Lyndonville Posted September 20, 2007 Report Posted September 20, 2007 Nope. No one cares what you wear over here. Watches, clothes, whatever, it's all good.
chrgod Posted September 20, 2007 Report Posted September 20, 2007 Should be no problems, I have been traveling to Houston a couple of times. No problems when entering Norway either God tur!
Defender110 Posted September 20, 2007 Report Posted September 20, 2007 never ever need to worry about that. :-)
space Posted September 20, 2007 Author Report Posted September 20, 2007 great! Then I can buy another rep, instead of a cheap gen I was thinking about buying a Seiko SKX031 Like the one in this beautiful photo taken by Pugwash: They're going pretty cheap at ebay.
Desuetude Posted September 20, 2007 Report Posted September 20, 2007 You should get one anyway. My Seiko 6139-729A from 1976 is still one of my favorite watches, and gets significant wrist time. Along with my Seamaster GMT (21J), it has been to hell and back, hasn't been serviced in 15 years, and still runs +8 seconds a day. They are truly timeless...not only because of the style, but because you simply can't kill 'em!
dvn Posted September 20, 2007 Report Posted September 20, 2007 earlier this year around April i wore my 4th gen po for my 3 weeks vacation to southeast Asia and no one had never ask me a question.

You shouldn't have anything to worry about, they are more worried about drugs and terrorism than a few watches. Just curious what part of Norway are you from, one of my friends is staying in Haugesund for the last month. I wanted to go visit but the timing wasn't right.
space Posted September 21, 2007 Author Report Posted September 21, 2007 Defacto: You're right. It's a timeless beautiful design World Traveller: I'm from Fredrikstad, south of the capital Oslo. Fredrikstad - Haugesund is about 500 km. Check out the map HERE

Do we ALL have friends in the small town of Haugesund? This is crazy.
