Yea, but this does not mean it will go smoothly for the future. They are now in the changing period, and it is just a safer bet to use shipping via NL or CZ.

Why would you want to send a parcel from the UK to the nl or cz then back to the eu? When you can just send a parcel from the UK to anywhere in the eu in a week or two?

About a week, didn't track too closely. Fasten than expected, didn't realize what I was going to unpack when it got delivered.

Totally unrelated to watches but I’ve ordered a small car part from Poland and it’s taken 9 days so far and according to UPS tracking it’s only just got to Germany so delays can happen irrespective of where there coming from
Not surprised Hermes are the devil when it comes to parcel delivery,
Totally inept, completely pathetic in every single way possible !!!!
the whole company deserves to be burned to the ground !!!!!!

So its not just bad in Germany? Also the drivers seem way more reckless than from other companies.

Correct. Most parcel courier delivery drivers usually have between 100 and 120 deliveries a day to complete and some are timed so even if you are at the end of the street and it's late you can't deliver it. A good rule of thumb for such companies is how easy are they to contact if something goes wrong.
To add insult to injury their tracking descriptions are shocking and incomprehensible (at least for me)
Item is still in Germany according to the above, 21 days after being shipped

RoyalMail is no saint in this case, my shipment says:
LANGLEY HWDC, Item Leaving the UK
it's been over a month as of now and still haven't left UK for no reason.

I think to be fair to the RM, overseas bound from the UK once it leaves Langley it’s the receiving country’s delivery service that is responsible on updating the tracking info. Some are good and some are not as good.
